Career Moves

In light of the drama surrounding my Dad’s passing last week, did I mention that I was negotiating for a new job at the same time?

In the process, my brain blew a diode or two, but it’s all but set now. I’ll be doing pretty much the same thing I am now (e.g. medical tech writing), but for more money and in what I hope will be a less frenetic environment.

The only downside to the job change involves my revised commute—the tollway between my home and the job site is literally torn to pieces for reconstruction—which is a treat to be relished. However, after I grow familiar with the gig I’ll be pushing to work from home, saving about $250 in gas and tolls per month.

My first day is next Tuesday.

I hope they have a Pepsi machine, because dammit, I am useless in the morning without my Pepsi on crushed ice.
