So here we are. The latest news on the employment front is that there isn’t much to report, sadly. A quick rundown of currently open possibilities:
– Abbott filled the Validation Auditor position, so the contract position in Chicago is on hold until a new position comes available (which, I’m told, occurs on a daily basis)
– Honeywell in Moncure, NC is still waffling about when to bring people in to interview (need to follow up with them today)
– A recruiter mentioned a possibility between Akron and Cleveland, OH several weeks back, but I can’t reach him to follow up. Try again today.
– The position in Ringwood, IL is on hold as well, trying to find out why. I e-mailed the recruiter just now.
– A possibility just popped up in Kernersville, NC that I might be receiving a call on soon. Not sure how I feel about that (we’re talking between Winston-Salem and Greensboro), but hey, it’s a job.
– Finally there’s an interesting position in epoxy resins that a recruiter floated by me yesterday in Houston, TX. See prior comment re: location.

Such is life these days – a lot of maybes, and not much else. Oh well, I just keep trying.

So, the big deal this coming weekend is Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Ashkenazy. Takaza wants to see it opening night, so we’re going to maybe get together with some friends and check it out. Not much else planned for the weekend, though, which is kind of nice.

Next week, pending any new job developments, I’ll be driving up to Chicago in preparation for the Midwest FurFest staff meeting on Sunday the 13th. Hopefully I’ll be able to make a couple more contacts with temp agencies while I’m up there, and maybe even put together a Western Suburbs Dinner. We shall see…
