Random Thoughts: Back to Work Edition

Vacation is Over

For my regular readers you will know I have been on the hunt for a new job for over a year now, but I am pleased to say that I will be embarking on a new career as of Monday, which is a great relief to me (and to my wife who will gladly have the house back in a regular working order soon enough). I will more likely than not post my reflections on this period sometime soon, but for now this is a bulletin and a warning that my postings may be a little erratic for the next little while as I grow accustomed to my work schedule as well (no I am not giving up blogging (at least I am not planning to) just that I need to get a rhythm back in my life).

From the Financial Blogosphere

Another interesting week in August, as we move toward the fall, and what do the financial bloggers have to say this week?

Should be an interesting weekend, and then back to work!

  4. Thanks for the link and if you took a job as a spy, don’t blog about it. :P

  5. Hi there, I actually just did a search on the Canadian Capitalist’s website using the term “Layoff” and after a couple of linking websites, came across your post of the layoff from last year.

    I click the home page, and it seems you have recently found yourself a new job! Congratulations!

    I have recently just experienced a layoff (in June 2009), live in Ottawa, and am pretty frustrated about how things are turning out. I’m a little younger than you (28), but I’d love to hear how you dealt with things in more detail, and what you did to find yourself this new venture!

    In the meantime, I’m going to look throughout your blog and read about yuour thoughts, as this is my first time visiting.

    Again, CONGRATS!

    I’ve left my email for you

  6. I am planning a group of posts about this very topic, stay tuned, here is a freebie. Talking with other unemployed people is NOT Networking, you network with people who have jobs, not the unemployed!

  7. Haha, that seems very logical, yet its probably not the most followed peice of advice there is.

  8. Congratulations on your new role (whatever it is).

    If Halloween candy is already on sale, Back To School season’s probably over ;)

  9. I’m happy to hear you found another job! Can you share some details? What is the job/industry?

  10. Congrats on the new job!!!
