Too, Too Long Between Updates…
So. With Reviving Romanticism as my inspiration, along with Steve Jobs and a few other people, I quit my job that I hated doing almost more than I hated the people in my department and their dysfunctional crazy-making. I am nearly finished with the semester that I’ve spent finishing my certificate in entrepreneurial welding. I have started a business but have yet to sell any product. I have spent less than $2k on tools and materials. I’ve been a bit distracted by all the learning.
Quitting my job meant that I could spend hours and hours in the welding department. It turns out that the folks here are really amazing and incredibly intelligent. It’s been so long since I felt at home somewhere and liked the people I spent so much time around. It reminds me that it IS possible to find a job where my skills and my abilities will be appreciated and valued. Now, I just have to hold out until I find it or get my business going like crazy (enough to pay bills). I’m back to growing my hair out (but I’m going for very thick, layered bangs this time) and boxes of hair dye to cover my grey roots.
