Damn, just found out that the full time position I had an interview for 3 weeks ago didn't turn out. I guess 4+ years out of full time work due to my injury will make it HARD getting a good job again I guess. I've been pretty happy "being injured" at home (meh to the pain but that's what the daily oxycontin is for!) being a daddy but a friend told me about his workplace having a position open up recently. It is (well was!) potential for awesomeness, work from home, good money, internet/linux security work, would have been GRREAAAT but alas, I didn't get it
At least the only positive I can try to take from this is that now I realise I have the motivation to work [full time] again, I just don't know if my injury could put up with going to a job/work site full time, I could do at home work but travelling to work and stuff, ummm, not so sure. I will try though, going to apply for jobs now, can't see that many *nix/security/networking stuff in Geelong so I guess I'd have to travel to Melbourne for work, so.. *off to applying for jobs*, just down at present from not getting the dream job. I still have the possible contract/part time job I am doing now turning into full time but was told it's not for a good while (1-3 years) so I don't think I could wait that long now since the interview 3 weeks ago..
*Wishes myself luck for a job*, Oh also a close uncle's funeral last week hasn't made the past week the best of weeks. Still, it's not too much to complain about, just had to let it out, I was REAL KEEN for that position!
