Oh JOG....I have not forgotten about you. It's just tougher to update now that I have not one but TWO freelance gigs.
I'm hanging in there but it's rough. I'm tired....like exhausted....a LOT. I'm still keeping up with my workouts to coincide with my work schedule but there are days like....Wednesdays that I may need to give up so I can go home earlier and relax.
It's not like I'm working a ton of hours (I think it works out to about 45 or so a week) but with commuting to and from work and then the gym schedule, I feel like my TV/relaxing time is very limited. Sometimes I just want to take a nap.
People are contacting me right and left thru Linkedin. I changed my status to someone who loves to find people jobs. A Networking fool. Due to that I'm getting requests from all over the world in terms of helping them find jobs. I'm trying to respond to everyone but sometimes it's tough if I don't have any connections in their field. I'm hoping to parlay this into a consulting/freelance career for myself. If I'm the one that everyone goes to to find work, wouldn't I be worth your company bringing on for the short term to get your staff hired and then move onto the next assignment? We shall see.
I'm enjoying be a networking "guru" of sorts. I like having a ton of connections and if I can help to find you a job then it only looks good for me.
OH....and at the Ad agency, I'm filling a lot of their jobs with folks from Linkedin. Linkedin is a resource I was told that they use but just not a ton. Well....I'm bringing it back, baby.
That last statement was a little obnoxious, but what can I say? It's one of those days.
hire me

I love that you're taking what you learned from your own unemployment to help other people. That's exactly the kind of thing we should be doing for each other and it's also the kind of thing that will succeed in the future. If you do enter into that business for yourself I see good things happening! Eh, I see good things happening anyway my friend.
ReplyDeleteHixx...you're an inspiration. Truly. So supportive. I'm lucky to have you as a friend. I am hoping I can do this. After reading your Blog, I say: I will do this. Yep.
