The Glade 4.0

After being unemployed since November of 2008, dozens of interviews, losing jobs that I didn't even get to start because of the economy. Companies going under that I had just interviewed with.

Finally a new job that I can almost guarantee won't disappear and will be there for as long as I want to work there. Starting next week I'll not only have a job, but I'll have a job that I've wanted for years, the (current) ultimate goal of my re-entry into college:

I've just been hired as a National Park Ranger.

Training starts next week, and I don't think I've ever been this excited about a job in my entire life. Now if I only had money to go out and celebrate.

YAY!!!

For the first 28 weeks, people will be coming up and asking you for SoW, and you'll probably be frustrated that you can't help them. Hang in there, it'll get better.
