tcepsa | Public Service Announcement

Last Monday I received notification that since the contract that I've been working on is being reawarded to a different company, and there's nothing to reassign me to, they're going to have to let me go. This is not surprising (I've had plenty of warning that something like this would almost certainly happen, especially with the near-miss in February) but that doesn't make it pleasant.

The job hunt is going well so far--nothing solid yet, but e-mails and interviews are happening. I don't know that I'll have something lined up by the time I'm done here (at the end of this week)--that seems like setting my expectations unrealistically high. I hope to have something lined up, but if I don't I need to remind myself that I've only really been looking since last Wednesday. Not finding a new job in a week and a half (especially the way I am looking; i.e. not terribly strenuously) is like not catching a fish within fifteen minutes of casting your line. Or something equally unreasonable to expect.

Not that I'm trying to talk myself out of being anxious or anything ~wry smile~ Fortunately, it actually seems to be working a bit.
