I won one of the three Gulches Good Life was giving away. I’m committed now, the yo-yo gods have spoken

Out of town visiting friends. Currently trapped underneath my napping wife (my tummy apparently makes a good pillow) waiting for friends to get out of work while listening to an album another friend just dropped.

Just hanging out. Gonna drop by the local game store and play board games, then get dinner 
.
We’ve mostly been playing it by ear. We had to drive to Virginia last minute for a family thing and decided to take a couple of extra days to visit some friends of ours in the area. So seeing local attractions and doing some shopping in between catching people when schedules allow.

I’ve recently received information that my job is in fact a dead end, and have been phoning it in since. Currently dragging my feet on a letter I need to write to a regulatory agency, thinking about the impending Batsquatch shipping.

Dang man, start learning block-chain. You’ll guarantee job security.

I’ve been thinking of branching out. Block-chain would keep me at this company as well probably. Got any resources I can investigate?
The benefits are great, but I was selected for a position that didn’t exist, and now am stripped of my previous tenure, doing my old job with about 75% more volume, and a 1.3% pay increase. Bad situation made worse by my current lack of visibility with management as well.

Unfortunately, I don’t know of any resources. I’m sure you can do a little digging and find useful resources though.

I’m not savvy enough to discern if this is sarcastic or not…
It’s a real thing, and it is exactly what it sounds like. Holy cow, this is nuts.

Thanks! Barring a hiring freeze from the upper management (happened at this company to me on an interview before), I got the job! Back into the lab this scientist finally goes.

I’ve been searching for a job in my field for over 2 years now, so this is a milestone job for me. I’m not unemployed at the moment; I do invoicing and cleaning for my mother’s cleaning service (long story short, I’ve been doing this for almost 5 years because of family reasons coinciding with my lab getting relocated). But taking advantage of my degree in biochemistry and research experience it is not.
Getting a job at 16 is nice for the extra hobby income. I worked at Shoprite pushing carts and stocking shelves. Those were the days of youth /sighs in nostalgia

Thanks dude, I appreciate the support. I had to take an extended detour, but now I can finally begin working up the ladder in a career that I’m passionate about (I made a mistake in not getting my master’s). I’m really hopeful that it works out. I got this same job (same boss) back in February, but apparently upper management can just declare a hiring freeze so that they can buy their new yachts or some crap. I had a connection here so he was candid with me that he has been in need of more employees for months now, but just wasn’t allowed to hire them.

I’m so messed up right now. Just had an emergency at my library, ambulances and everything. I was the person in charge when it happened and I don’t think I’ll be okay for the rest of the day
