APPLY TO ALL THE JOBS!

Herro!

It's been a while since my last post.

I have been blogging, but I haven't been publishing. What I do at work sometimes when there's downtime is I blog offline on my iPod, then forget to publish it later. Probably shouldn't publish anyway, most of it is just me ranting about how bored I am at work. :(

So I'm having a bit of a dilemma. I really want to quit, like right now. However my contract is almost done at this assignment, so I should really hold it off. But at the same time I am so tired of micromanagement, repetitive admin work and miscommunication as well as the lack of socializing, that I am SO tempted to just quit very soon. I shouldn't, I really shouldn't. I need to wait for my next employment opportunity first before I can quit. It's soo hard, but I have to wait it out.

I'm purposely not asking for more work like I usually do, because what if I do get a new job soon? I wouldn't want too much on my plate and feel really awkward for leaving my contract early.

Then again, I've been applying to a lot of jobs (I try to apply to one everyday that I have time) but haven't gotten any interviews yet. I started my follow-up emails so hopefully I will get something soon. :)

I need to make a video resume tomorrow. There's a job that I want to apply for and they're not accepting a traditional resume. Time to roll up my sleeves and get to know AE a little better, too, so I can add nifty effects to my video resume. I've outlined the sections I want to cover, but now I need to come up with a script... hmmm. The posting didn't list a due date, so I am presuming it's ASAP, or until they can find suitable candidates... which is why I need to get started now. I also need good audio, so I'm going to purchase the Zoom H1 tomorrow. Hmm, not sure if I should purchase during my lunch break or after work... 

Gosh, I really want a new job.

I'll find one soon.

If I did quit now, I'd work really hard trying to freelance. I'd also probably find a part-time job. 

I've thought about going back to school as well. My contract ends in August, that would be perfect to go back to school in the Fall... but I don't know, I want work experience. 

I am just so sick of admin work. 

This time I mean it when I say I won't be applying to admin jobs anymore. The work is just so repetitive... I think I just don't like data entry...
