Woohoo! Job!

I've not been around the past month or so because I've been moving/job hunting pretty intensely. It's a rough market out there, right now! For what would be entry level jobs you're competing with professionals who have been laid off and crappier jobs like call centers, retail, etc. won't hire people who are overqualified because they know they'll quit once something good shows up. Anyway, not a good time to be job hunting.

But, I found a job (and in my field!) and started last Tuesday! I'm now the Literacy Director at a local non-profit that is also a food bank and free clinic. My job is to help out with those activities, but I also help people in the community get their GEDs, find jobs, tutor local children who need it, and help some of them get into college.

Anyway, I wanted to share it as everyone here has been so supportive. Thanks a lot!
