So Far So...Interesting
One thing I've learned about
Monster so far: The really good companies don't advertise jobs on the board, they just contact you. I've actually got one decent bite from [name withheld]
magazine. [name withheld] magazine could be an interesting career move. And moving to [city name withheld] is right up my alley because there's a lot [activity name withheld] of there.
Sorry I can't give away anymore details than that. Stay tuned.
I'm off until Sunday so I need to do two things. I gotta fire off an email to my boy Rick Parsons at the Dupont Registry to see what he's got shaking. I'm not even hitting him up for work because there really isn't much at "The Reg" other than ads or design. I could always do a freelance or two for him if Tampa Bay mag needs one. But Rick keeps his ear to the ground out there in St. Pete and he's got some good leads.
And I need to call Mary Loftus in the short term. I used to work with Mary back in the day, she is probably the best writer I know, certainly the nicest woman. I used to house sit for her quite a bit too and I never stole anything, so you know I must like her. However she's also VERY connected, I was gonna hook the last intern up by giving a good reference to her so he could get more work, BUT....he really wasn't very good, so he's SOL.
Besides I need her right now, I know she's got something for me. What exactly? I have no clue, shoot if she hired me to work at Emory Magazine right now, I'd probably go. I know I promised my boss I'd stay until February, but hey I've lied before.
So that means I need to go and make that call, and maybe go to the gym after that, and probably go to Best Buy after that and grab the Goodfellas Special Edition DVD. I'll also stop by B&N and grab the lastest New Yorker too. But that's getting too far into details.
