lauralh | job search bs

I hadn't checked my email for that stuff all week, so I went for it. Quite a few mails, and even a couple of positions that didn't require seven (SEVEN!!) years of experience in the industry. And then I went through Monster.com and applied to almost every job even saying "BS in Computer Science required," since that's why I got that damned thing, right? To get jobs? Finally I went to Volt and put my resume up there. I actually worked with them before, when I was first thinking of moving out here, but nothing ever surfaced. They mainly, as I recall, tried to put me in contract positions doing testing at MS, but everyone I interviewed with said I just wasn't experienced enough, despite knowing my shit. Ah well. I got more experience and an MCSD now baby. Of course there's also this damn non-recession.

And then of course watching The Royal Tenenbaums totally made me want to get into script writing again, but last night I sort of passed out around 10:30 so that was a washout. Oh well.
