committment

i realize my job problems have to do with commitment: i can't make one. i'm always thinking there is something out there bigger and better if i just wait. how do i stop this?

Job Search

finding jobs that don't want to make you want to become a job-head-hunting terrorist make me want to live a life of simplicity on a remote island in fiji with the rest of my homies.

my roommate says i should write down all the stuff i've done so far so here it is:

1. dell - didn't want to work on the weekends and late at night. i care more about beings social than being a successful seller of consumer computers.

2. suntrust selling credit cards to trucking companys - nuff said.

3. i went to a job fair and was 'perfect' for several telemarketer jobs

4. countless spam emails where i could make 100,000 a year working 2 hours a day

5. sony music - redesigning their website, cool, but i never heard from them

6. dell education - selling computers to schools which i have done for the past 3 years - heard nothing

7. vandy - working in international office - did this for 3 years, took in resume to office, didn't get an interview

8. nashville city and private schools - bachelor and masters in education and have presented at international conferences - hand delivered my resume to the schools - didn't get one interview

9. theres like 10 more that i just sent a resume to and never heard from.

I say all of this b/c I know there's got to be something cool out there for me. I just can't figure it out. Good thing God's in control. I'm going nuts.

Sweet Southern Comfort

I'm finally back in the US now for good (at least thats what my mom thinks). Over the next couple of entries, I'm going to be outlining the differences I see in my life now compared to what my life was just 6 months ago when I was living in Vienna.

So if anyone actually reads this thing, they'll probably have something to read once a week.
