Crazy Week pt3 – New Job

theoffice

I was in employment limbo for a long time. 5 months to be exact. I signed on for contract work that turned out to be a long wait for tasks and turned into something that paid the bills but was unsatisfying. I knew a job was out there which would showcase my talents but settled for less to get my family by.

Today that changes as I start a new job.

Today I start work that will go back to my FORE Systems roots (not as an intern though) as a web developer & new social media coordinator.

Today I start work that has the potential to release what Ericsson refused to address.

Today I start work with creative freedom that has been unmatched to this point

Today I start work unleashing the inner Doug.

Today I am spoon.

Today rocks.

      Dude, I am so excited for you — there’s something to be said about plunging full-on into uncharted waters.

      What an awesome perspective you have. I hope it’s contagious.
