The Hunt Continues

I've still been on the circuit trying to hunt down and secure possible employment. It's been tough. It's hard to get motivated. It's hard to call people. It takes it toll and today was one of those days that I just wanted to relax. I probably spent about an hour all together on the job front trying to see what's out there.

I've got some good leads and just so happened to be selected to have my resume posted on a radio station in Omaha, NE. Take it this requires me to travel 3hrs 15 minutes for a 30 minute meeting, but if an opportunity comes out of it.... well, then it would be worth the 6hrs 30 minutes drive time. At this point I am planning on making it a simple day trip; however, I've been trying to get a hold of a publications company in Rock Rapids, IA. I'm planning on calling them tomorrow and seeing if arrangements can be made to meet. If that's the case, I'll plan on going to Sioux City for the night, driving to Rock Rapids 1hr 30min. Friday morning. Depending on if the family decides to travel north for this could make it a weekend trip; otherwise, I'll plan on driving back to Topeka from Rock Rapids.

Overall, there is one opportunity that I’ve really been striving/praying for and I’d love nothing more than to work for this company and support all that it does. At this time, I’m not going to give out details, but as I encounter more I’ll keep everyone and anyone who reads this updated.

In the last two weeks, I’ve put in for 25 jobs and I’ve made contact with about ¼ of them.

Cross your fingers and continue praying for us. It’s not a bad thing, it’s an opportunity… =)
