IWT.employed++?
Well, I started a new job today. I'm now working for Williams-Sonoma part time doing stocking and receiving shipments on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Hopefully next week or the week after, I'll start helping out with their cooking classes on Monday evenings, too.
Oh well. I have an interview for a Real Job[TM] tomorrow, but at least now I'm no longer sitting on my ass all day every day.

Whoa there Hoss
I thought you were a high mucky globe trotting consultant? When did that great gig end?? You're one of the most employable people here - now I'm really depressed.

Technically, it hasn't.
The gig, that is.
They still call me every 3-4 weeks to yank my chain. "Yeah, the client likes you, but has nowhere to send you." "We want you to go to Kuwait. You need to leave tomorrow. Oh, and it takes 3 days to get a visa." (No, I shit you not.)
Shit like that. At least they're still paying my healthcare...But they haven't sent me anywhere since mid-April.

Half the battle
If they are paying your health care, then that is half a job right there.
Still, you know it can't last if they can't find anyway to make money off you.
Good Luck.

Is that in Fox Valley Mall
or is it on your side of Route 59?
Guess the retail look of the area has changed considerably since I lived there several years ago.
