"And so it goes...."
Well, it's now five and a half hours since my last post. In that time I've successfully applied for nine different resume jobs, signed up for and explored a freelance jobs listing site for a bit, yawned a few times, searched a number of different company sites seeking new employees, and probably read through at least sixty different job ads.
The highlight of all that though, I think, was one Graphics/ Copywriter job. They asked specifically for creative and humorous writers, and wanted that reflected in the resume and cover letter. So I wrote them a humorous short story instead of the standard cover letter. Either it worked or it didn't. We'll see if they call me. :)
I think it was a productive and successful few hours though. But it's not over yet. I have a few more listing sites I want to go through this morning, a few specific companies yet to look at, and, if I'm still awake around noon, a few places to call from the employment section of the newspaper.
I am determined to find a job that allows me to be creative! I'm definitely doing my part! .... Where are the people that can do something for me?! .... [raises eyebrow].
Well, off to grab a shower, and then back to the grindstone. I'll catch you all again on my next 'break'.
Your dedicated creatively job-seeking friend,
-Jon
