So.. about that university job…

Yeah, I don’t have it any more. I completed my 90 day probationary period, and they decided not to keep me. Needless to say I was stunned. The general consensus seems to be that there was some sort of personality conflict. Certainly my boss never warmed to me at all.

So anyway, now I am back to looking for work again, and as you can imagine, I am just thrilled about it (not). At least Kelly has had a lot of good interviews lately. I am going to try to keep working on more certifications, and personal networking, and whatever else I can do to keep me busy and constructive.
