The Great Job Hunt Adventure
So I'm in the midst of finding a full time job.
I LOVE working at the scuba shop, but it's part time, it's min wage. I knew when I took the position that the dive industry isn't a place to make money, you are poor but doing what you love.
Hopefully one day I'll be able to do that overseas traveling and go back to my passion working in the dive industry.
However circumstances dictate that I need to get a full time job with real money andinsurance and 401K etc etc.
So with computer degree in hand I'm trying for jobs in my second love which is law enforcement. Unfortunatly with old age and arthritis setting into my knee and ankle I don't think I'm going to be able to work in a patrol unit. I just don't think my stamina with the knee and ankle is what is should be and lord I don't want to put a partner into jeporady.
Yesterday I applied for a Armored car driver/guard. 3 hours after I put in my application I got called for an interview. I interview tomorrow morning. I'm hoping as quickly as I was called that's a good sign. (I wish I knew where my bullet proof vest disappeared to though)
I've also put in for a Public Safety Dispatcher (9-11 operator) with 2 different cities. I'm filling out a background invistagation packet for one city. It's as extensive as when I got a security clearance. Fingers crossed on that one.
Keep me in your prayers or your thoughts or even your fantasies. Whatever you think will help me most.
I'll try to post later.
Hugs
