No decision as of yet. Sorry.

Kerri

Here's motivation: Let's put the fastest guy in the Development Dept. on the Gramma Moses' PC, and watch him fight to stay awake.

Why do I waste my time trying to obtain these shitty 'cubical-fodder' jobs where I have to drive a long, hard way in a chameleon-colored tie so that I can do backflips to fit into a corporate culture that just doesn't suit me?

I think in the beginning I had some vague notion that my incredibly varied, yet shallow, experience in just about everything 'office' might garner me a few extra bucks-per-hour, and after a year (and, actually a lot longer) it's time to admit that this formula, too, does not work!

I look back over a life that I'm more or less very happy and content with. But all the puddles of depression and anxiety gather and pool in the low spots that are my education and career. . .

I am not my

fucking khakis!

aye, there's the problem. you aren't your khakis. but you need khakis.

this is why i fantasized about being 'adopted' by wealthy patrons when i moved to nyc after college. they'd pay for me to study stuff and travel and think i was the most fascinating person ever. where's my daddy warbucks?

I can only assume . . .

. . . that Hospice doesn't want me, despite the encouragemnet I get from the people I work with directly.

But the suits are loosing me . . .

I received a tip earlier from a place that must be the goddamn Emerald City or something, where the CEO rides his bike to work and they actually encourage people to get out and be active.

I’ve been doing work and school and it’s really hard. I’m much more cranky due to lack of sleep and stress but I think it’s worth it. I feel good about being in school and learning things. You may want to check into Western Governor’s University because they have very reasonable tuition rates (2,600 for 6 mos.) and they have financial aid (usually covers about half). I’m set to graduate at the end of the year if I keep this pace up, but it’s not easy though. I think when I get done with my BS, I’m going to go for the MBA. I’m hoping that job prospects will be very good.

I've looked into it. . .

But I'm really not interested in a degree in business or computer science. Those would be fine if I thought I might like to stay in this area. What it comes down to is your path is different from mine, and obviously more clearly defined.
