Unemployed in Minnesota: The story thus far

October 2, 2009
Tags:

So in June I was laid off from my consulting firm. They couldn’t find me any clients, and were tired of paying me to sit at home and watch TV.
Initially I thought it’d be fairly easy to find a new job – I have over 10 years experience in the Information Technology field, I’m a Microsoft MVP, and I’m generally a decent human being.

Well alas, it hasn’t happened yet.

So I decided the other day to start writing about it all.

I apply to a lot of jobs, talk to a lot of people. There’s so much promising stuff going on. But it hasn’t happened yet.

So in my self-imposed house arrest I do what I can to keep my mind off of things; I tinker. I make things. I break things. I have thoughts.

I figured I might as well put them out there into the world – yet another thing to keep my mind off the boredom.
And I want to make revenue from ads too. That would be sweet – but I’m not going to hold my breath.

Oh, and if anyone is looking for an awesome Windows System Administrator, please feel free to give me a call!
