WHY SO MANY HILLS AND VALLEYS IN LIFE
Summary: Received a job offer, a job rejections, a job interview and my Dad could pass anytime.
I got a job offer for a future position (hire date open), but I must pass a Drug Screen, Credit & Background check, Government Security clearance and pass the Security+ exam. The last item is all on me and may prove to be hard. Out of the "+" test, this is the worse one and I have not ever taken the other ones. Have a book and internet videos that should help however :D
One job I was really hoping to get into sent me a rejection letter. I can only assume it was due to my previous salaries which were 1/2 what I was making in Florida. It may of scared them off - over qualified sort of issue.
I have a job interview tomorrow with the company I used to contract for in another department. It will be an FTE position and not contract which I want. Not sure it will be a good idea as my wife really doesn't want me there. She has heard horror stories from others that worked for them. Still, it may be a good start for me to get back on my feet.
I did also apply to a position for a Cross Dock (Warehousing). It has been several years that I have no been in that environment, but I know I can do it. I really like working in the warehouse as it was busy and physically demanding. I think it would be good to lose a few pounds.
The cherry today for the sundae was the fact my Dad is not doing well. His heart is operating at 18-30% and he is having issues breathing. It is an issue that has been haunting him for a while, but this is the first time a doctor said - we have done everything we can.
FML times Pi
Almost forgot, I was up to 3am working on my computer and still at it this morning. Too many software and updates to count with so little time.
