I have a job! Started on Monday. It's ok. Doesn't pay as well as I'd like, but I'm going to keep looking for other things. The temp agency called me today and said there's another, more interesting, better paying job open. I should hear about that in a couple of days.

I'm looking for a new apartment. The place I'm living right now sucks -...

Going to Boston tomorrow. Yay! Might not be able to update for a while....
jebustheimpaler:
Ok you're right... It's not cold and dead, I'm just in a bad mood.
So welcome to Boston, if you need someone to show you around send me an email.

Don't worry, that was not a pick-up line-- I know how important it is to get to know where you're going to live.

Welcome to Boston, home of drunken college students and men that would sell their firstborn children for the Red Sox to win again. smile

Back from Boston. It was a little hectic. Got there Monday evening, the guy I was supposed to stay with wasn't in town, his plane was late, and he couldn't contact me because I don't have a cell. (I'm going to get one.) So I wandered around the city for a bit, then met up with my cousin and then my brother, and finally made...

Boston! I've only been there once but I know it's a nice place in the fall... don't drive downtown though... the streets are narrow curvy and like 600 years old or something.

OK, so on Thursday I went to the big city and met Rhoswen, and we went to see Hostage with a friend of mine, and walked around Church St. a bit, and went to the tattoo parlor. It was a good day.

On Monday I'm going to BOSTON! Getting there is going to be slightly complicated, because I'm going to leave my car in...

I think this is the longest I've gone without updating since I joined the site.

Noteworthy items: I have a phone interview with Triumvirate Environmental on Monday. I'm not sure exactly what the position is, but it involves getting a CDL license and emergency response training. But they want someone with a chemistry degree.... I've also been looking into apartments, and am probably going to...

Got an application form today from a company I e-mailed my resume to. They're hiring environmental field chemists. Sounds better than cooking up drugs in a pharma lab. But the application included two little tests. The first one I had to pick T/F responses to a bunch of statements. But I had to pick the answers I would choose, and then I had to pick...

lotusmonger:
the salary question is a test I think... Find out what the going average salary is for your position, and when they ask what salary you want, give them one slightly higher.

I may be just being paranoid, but it's probably the HR persons little personality test about how confident you are in your abilities and that you think your time and ability are important and worthy enough to hand over to someone else for said price.

I've never had to interview for a real job, yet, so don't take my strategy as gospel. confused

field work is always more better than inside a lab... even in cold vermont winters...

So, im afriad I might steal your tattoo idea, i know, what a bitch...but mine would be very small and on my left wrist (why im not sure, but thats where it seems i would like it to go)

I've applied for 26 jobs in the last couple of days. Got one response so far, from an employment agency. Maybe they'll be able to find me something. The guy wanted to know how soon I'll be able to move to Boston. Um, tomorrow?

I'm baaaaack! Left Pittsburgh yesterday, got stuck in that stupid snow storm that hit most of the north east. Wasn't as bad as they said it would be, but most people just don't know how to drive in the snow, which makes it harder for those of us who do.....

Overall, it was fun. Got to visit a bunch of friends, and see new places....
