And a Happy New Year to all! (All those of you who still visit this blog, that is...) Utley is, despite widespread rumors, still alive and still unemployed. Or maybe the term these days is underemployed. For some reason, I think there may be greener pastures out there for me other than standing 5 hours a night outside a ski lift shack. But, hey $8 an hour is better than $0 per hour.
It's been a while. I hate to say it, but it's coming up on almost a year of being "On Sabbatical." My parents are so thrilled...
Not sure if I mentioned it last time I blogged, but had a great interview 2 weeks ago. Was/am excited about the company, industry and people who work there. Built super rapport. Looked sharp. Usually love to flash my Mont Blanc Pen around during an interview, of course to take notes, but also to show that not only am I a man of taste, but a man who has achieved the type of success it takes to purchase a $200 pen. But that was years ago. I recently went into a jewelry store to get my Tag fixed, and the effeminate gent behind the counter told me that my particular Mont Blanc now goes for up to $500. But I digress...and point being that this fine piece of art/pen ran out of f'n ink as I was taking notes. Still was able to write invisible scratches on the paper, but hopefully that didn't send a bad message.
That was exactly 2 weeks ago. I called yesterday. "Still status quo," the nice HR Lady said. You know, with the holidays and all that, haven't had a chance to "sit down and talk." Which I buy. However, when I have not been able to get past the first interview, I do begin to worry...
And Christ, I turn 30 in September. Let's all hope that some big mf'n sh*t is gonna go down real soon. Real soon, my people.
