The Looking Glass

Well, yesterday was kind of a lonely day. I spent the entire day, after meeting with Preston’s group, working on my resume. Was hard to be here at home all by myself all day. I am use to being around other people all day long, so that was different.

It looks like winter is back. It’s snowing outside now and the wind is blowing. I guess the windchill is like -20. At least I can get out and get the sidewalks clear as soon as it stops.

I have an appointment with David Wheeler, a manager over at Man Power, he is a friend of Preston’s. I guess they have a professional placement service as well. David is a rather unconventional guy and loves what he does and enjoys helping people. I am hopeful about this meeting. We are going to review what I have done on my resume and look at some options.

I ran out of black ink in my printer this morning, so I guess I’ll make a run to the store to get more. Go figure I would run out when I need it most.

Anyways, still here and kicking. Like the old saying goes “what doesn’t kill us only makes us stronger.” I hope you are all doing well. I would love to hear from you guys. Keep in touch.

Started today off with a meeting at Preston’s Worklife group at Oasis Church. It was a small group and I knew a few of the faces that were there. Worklife is a small support group for people who have been displaced or are looking for work. It was a little scary seeing so many qualified people there that have been looking for work for so long.

Today is resume day for me. I started listing skills and info yesterday and hope to start hammering out the details next. I have found a lot of examples out on the internet and even more in job search brochures.

I also got an email from Dan Tyre from Hubspot with some great resources and some encouragement. I am looking forward to reviewing that info later today.

That’s it for now, maybe more later if there is more to report on.
