Well,
the big news at chez bulken this week is that I'm currently 'between jobs'. Now, before everyone gasps horribly, other than the obvious financial pressures which a new job will have to cover, I'm more than OK with this situation. Sparing you the gory details, they let me go, and as a result I will be able to use that to my advantage through retraining and/or other grants and so on.
I'm taking a few days to refocus and figure out what new direction I want to pursue. I've been in the transportation and warehousing industry for several years now, but I'm honestly not 'tied' to the industry at all.
I've got several options I'm considering, and am heavily revamping/updating the resume. There is a local agency to help with that, and I'll be utilizing them heavily. Especially on the retraining front.
There are several local colleges with carpentry courses, and I'm going to look into taking classes (if I can fit them around any new job I find), with an eye towards getting into the trades.
