I put together a monstrous resume and tonight I applied to fill an opening for a senior IT position with one of the world’s largest tech distributors.
I’ve spent my whole life in the print industry, but all that’s left is a hollow, empty shell of a once-great market. The work environment at my small company is psychologically toxic and thankless and I doubt the company will stay in business if I wait it out much longer.
I have two contacts at the new company - a family friend who worked there for over 30 years, and a relative, the former drummer for Lou Gramm before Foreigner who has been working there happily for many years. Hopefully, they can help me out.
The resume is all killer no filler - an impressive roster of successes directly in the field of IT and communication. And the starting pay is nearly double my present income. It’s a huge career move but I’m not going to let this opportunity pass me by.
If this all works out, I promise you all that I’ll publish the two and a half months’ worth I've written of A Classy B*stard from Nine to Five member journal that I hinted at earlier showcasing all the insanity of the former workplace.
Wish me luck, everyone!
