So last week was a lot of polishing, refining, and … well, hemming and hawing. I did all the remaining pre-hunt useful stuff (figuring out, in broad terms, what I want to be when I grow up; getting resume and LinkedIn profile in sync; having a discussion about severance packages), but probably not as much as I could have or should have.
This week: we hunt for jobs!


Have you signed up for unemployment yet? That was a strange experience.
All the best Dave! Keep strong and remain optimistic. Don’t fall for a recruiter promising a gig for a fee. You’re a bigger man for that mess….
+Paula Moore Not formally unemployed yet.
Good luck in your search. Hopefully you find work you enjoy with a company that treats you well.
BTW, I've seen bits of the webcomic you have in this post. What is it called and do you have a link?
+Brian Barth That would be Girl Genius, by Phil and Kaja Foglio. It's available at http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php#.VbeHn_lVhBc, as well as through (thirteen now) collections. It is teh Awesome.
