Staying Positive
It’s been quite a very long and shocking week for me but I will keep trying until I get my next position. The golden rule of life that is persistence prevails. You can try 100 times and fail but succeed on the 101th try and it makes it worth it. I have been spending most of my time on the phone and have already met with a local IT headhunter. I am trying my best to stay in Tampa but am willing to sacrifice and move to another city in Florida for the right opportunity. Flexibility is key in a bad job market.
I am just thinking about how ridiculous it was too be notified this late in the year that the budget cut backs should have been made from the start of the year. Some people have apartment leases and to break them is costly. Now it would probably cost way more to be unemployed than to just suck up and pay a penalty regardless of the cost.
Now I have to get back to doing some more reading and will continue to post updates on my job hunt as it goes.
