Random Thoughts on a Job Search | Life

I haven’t search for a job in about six years. It’s not as bad as dating, but it’s definitely challenging.

Part of me wants to find a job in an entirely new industry. Part of me just wants to freelance and do some writing. Part of me wants to do the same thing I’ve been doing because I’ve been doing it for 14 years and I can do it without thinking about it much. The thing is that I’m tired of the stress of my current job. It’s not the people. My bosses and coworkers are great people. I’m just tired of the constant fire drills. To paraphrase Danny Glover, I’m too old for that shit.

Or maybe I just wish we weren’t so understaffed. I don’t know. I just want a job that makes me happy, a job that I like getting up for in the mornings.
