five thousand shades of blue
Wednesday, August 08, 2001
So things are not the easiest right now, bills keep pouring in but I have yet to win the lottery or gain the attention of a Bill Gates... but in so many ways I am so lucky. I have my
health, I have my
family, I have my friends. I even have my cats. While it's depressing, it's impermanent and within my power to affect change. I just wish the changing wasn't so damn trying.
It doesn't help either that
the number of tech-sector layoffs in July alone are astronomical. I'm starting to feel a bit like a salmon fighting the current. It's little wonder that
new graduates can't find anything either, when they are competing with field veterans who need those jobs, too. I'd take the first thing I was offered at this point, so long as it was bringing in some money.
is
this just not enough…?
