State of the Voop April 2010..

I have two jobs, now.

The extra reason behind my disappearance from most places I frequent online (aside from needing the reboot mentioned a few posts or so ago) is a job I've taken on to supplement the lack of employ from my main job QA testing, this new job being an independent sales rep for a kitchen cutlery company.  Some of you can likely ( Read more... )

Years ago as an aspiring college student seeking summer work I sought employ from said kitchen company. I can tell you how [i]shocked[/i] I am to see such a level of endurance from anyone! I didn't stick it out as long as you did, and my locale allowed me access to three or four thousand middle-to-upper income houses to knock door to door on. I didn't make it past three or four hundred before stepping away from that job.

Holding down that job despite the rigors it demands of you takes a hell of a lot of perseverance and fortitude. On top of a second job, as well. What a balancing act! On my end I've just been trying to find any job at all for over a month now, so kudos for finding two.

You have my empathy for what you're going through. Best of luck! I miss you.

Remember, there will always be the Barataria Bay. Unless it gets blown up. Or impounded by the Empire. Or.... :)

Seriously though, I wish all the luck and success in the world, Niko. You will get through this. *hugs*

*hugs tight* Wondered why you've been so isolated - I could never do what you are doing, voop. You have my utmost respect for sticking it out. Sales jobs in general are just... wow... tough.

As for the call, that's fine. I won't be interested in a job for it, but I appreciate the heads up.

You know... I've been looking for a new set of knives. I am serious - I'm getting into a bit more cooking now that I have a tabletop oven, and I could use some better quality cutlery. If you believe in the product to be able to sell it to a friend, get with me and we can talk.

I'm serious. :)

Keep it together, I know if anyone who can pull through a rough trial in life it is you.

Hugs and kisses.
