Today has been a blessing, work wise.
For the first time in a few weeks, we're actually caught up to the point that we are already getting ahead on work for Monday. Also, because it's Friday, stuff can be sent out later so that we can get more done. Nothing ships on Saturday, so we have the luxury of getting more done and having more time to do it.
That said, I'm thinking more and more about looking for a different job. The best things about this job are that it pays my bills and it's close to home. I like my work, sometimes, but I don't love it. It has far too many ups and downs to want to hang with it, especially if it's work that's not personally rewarding. It meets the physical needs that I have, and I think God is using the situation to cause me to grow, but I'll readily admit that I would walk away from this place at the first opportunity. I don't want to build my career here, although they'll certainly to make that opportunity happen.
I started looking at Craigslist on my last break, just to start seeing what's out there. At the moment, there's not a lot out there. The most interesting thing I've seen so far is an ad looking for an assistant to a pickup artist. For those who do not know, a pickup artist teaches schlubby dudes who don't know how to pick up women how to do it. The assistant would be teaching guys how to text to women. I'm not saying I'd go for this job, I just marvel at the idea that it exists.
Pray that if it's God's will, I would find another job, something that I would love doing.
