Well, it seems that many more people know today something only a few knew yesterday. Yes, I’m looking for a new job. Where? Mostly in Phoenix but also a few other places. What for? A position, preferably one that involves training/teaching in either a public or academic library (but I’m not ruling anything out.) Why? Well, that’s the toughest one.
Mostly it’s the travel. Not the travel itself actually but it’s what the travel doesn’t allow me to have; a life. A prime example is the fact that I went grocery shopping today for the first time since my birthday. For those of you who don’t know, my birthday was on September 23rd. I’ve just been traveling too much to have the time or even justify my spending money on groceries that I’d probably not finish before leaving town again, resulting in my tossing out most of it when I got back home.
So, that’s the deal. If you know of positions that I might be interested in please drop me a line. And no, I don’t plan on blogging every step of the process. Sorry.
