A Look Back At Our Time In New Hampshire
Why did I move to New Hampshire? I was getting tired of my old position at my (now old) organization. I wasn’t getting along with one of managers and my job was a little monotonous. I said I needed a change or I’d be leaving. And we were at a point in our lives where…
Excuses, Excuses
I'm starting to feel a little pathetic. Job searching comes with a lot of ups and downs. Rejection emails, ghosting, preliminary interviews that just confuse me further. It feels like every time I talk to someone about what I'm going through, they give me these puppy dog eyes like I'm a broken toy. So I'll…
