Numbered

My days with Morgenstern Home Services are numbered.  Today, expecting some sort of work to do, I was given the run-around.  I was told that the boss would get back with me, and he never called.  This can’t and won’t last much longer, in these trying times my pocketbook can’t take it.

I e-mailed the CSR and asked if I could come in tomorrow and Wednesday to work.  They said it would be okay.  I will also be working full-time at Technology Services for the month of August.

If I could only get a “permanent” solution.  I’ve been trying since September of 2006 with no real luck.  My wife thinks it would be a good idea for me to be in the university environment, so I have been trying hard to achieve a position at IU.  Here are some numbers to give you an idea of the sheer number of jobs I’ve applied to at IU.

# of jobs applied to:  61
# of interviews:  2

Most of these positions are “starter” office positions, which need little or no specialized skills mind you.  There have been a couple which tickle my fancy as they have been video related.

Those numbers don’t take into account the endless number of positions outside of IU that I have applied to as well.

In other IU news, I have finally received a university identification card.  I doubt it will help, but perhaps it might show some sign of permanence?
