What can you do in 5 min? Not much. 5 min before I go to work. So here is the low down.
I finally got my Comcast turned back on. They had cut me off for abuse of their network. Something about 100-200 gigs a month using bandwidth, I don't know. I will rant on it later.
My friend Justin got laid off from his job today. That really sucks. Company cutbacks. I dreamed about it while I was sleeping today. Brings back the memories of the loss of heart that I recently went through or my own layoff. It really is a tough thing to go through. I will give him tonight to be with his family and alone and then I will go see him tomorrow to talk about it and be his friend. Today I just want him to deal with it in his own way with out my interference. If I had tonight night off I would take him out drinking. That is what I did the day I got laid off.
I have applied for about 3-4 more jobs. The disheartening thing is none of them even call me back for interviews. It is like I am tossing my resume into the air ad watching it flush down the gutter. Of course now I am always thinking about now how I will in someway be competing with Justin for the same jobs that do not exist out here. I know in reality we are not in the same field, he is a web developer and I am a Networking cable monkey. Still it is in the same genre if not the same job description so now I would feel bad if I all of a sudden got a job right as he lost his. Stupid logic but a touchy-feely logic all the same.
Well 5 min is up. I will proofread this and spellcheck it later tonight at work when I get a chance. I will also try to add some more detail.
