My Inner Geek











{March 11, 2010}   The best way to appreciate your job is to imagine yourself without one.

Oscar Wilde that one.

He makes a good point. One of the many roles I have in my jobs aside from teaching is interviewing people who are unemployed to offer them training. Considering I’m offering them paid for help, you’d think this would be a really positive role. But it’s draining. The cycle that job hunting creates, develops this void of hoplessness that seems to increase over time and what should be something that inspires motivation, often just appears to be another hoop to jump through. Most thursdays I wake up cursing the 12 hour day ahead of me (not including any coding to be done when I get home). But the alternative is far worse. Better a long, but emotionally draining day than no day at all.

On a more positive note I got the callback for an interview for more teaching hours. Yay!
