As I said in my last post, I have been looking for a new job for the last several months, and I finally got one. I'm really excited. I think it's going to be a great fit for me. The support that I've gotten from my friends here has helped me a lot.

Listening to this song about perseverance has also given me a great deal of encouragement.

I would like to dedicate this song to everyone on EP who is trying to find a new job. It's not easy, but if I could do it, you can do it too. Just don't give up.

Congratulations, what are you doing?

Thank you! We were doing data entry, downloading financial documents from Xerox's client's server, saving them to the correct folders, and then electronically sorting them by entering the numeric code corresponding to the type of document. Now we're finished with that project, and we're opening mail, sorting them into stacks by the type of document, and making sure that they are in good enough condition to be scanned, so they don't jam the scanner. It's very simple, easy work, which is a nice change from the last two jobs I had before, which were very complicated and stressful. It's only temporary, through the end of April. But I probably wouldn't want to do this forever. I will probably want to go back to school, possibly to become a veterinary technician. Of course, this will take quite a bit of school, and I need a job in the meantime to pay my way through school. And this type of work fills the bill very nicely.

Thanks again.
