Life is Change - Richard
Spelling
Well, a lot has happened since the last issue. Articles have been slow
in coming, and I've been too busy to write anything. Apparently, everyone else
has been too!
Finally got the new place set up, and was working on the shop and the
car/boat port. Then, I must have driven over one of those surprise generators
they bury right after those "dangerous intersection" signs.
There was a systems crash at work, and the newest backup for that system was
two weeks old. They started going after the girl in charge of the system, and I
spoke up and said, basically, "I was in charge of backups, here is what
happened, it wasn't her fault."
So, they fired me instead.
I am now in the ranks of the unemployed. I'm sending out resumes,
and trying to start up my budding business. However, I was caught
flat-footed, as I had grown comfortable at this place. Out of some,
perhaps misguided, sense of loyalty, I had stopped my usual practice
of looking through the paper and sending out resumes to interesting jobs.
So.
If any of you folks have been holding back contributions to the webzine,
now would be a good time...
