Update on the Day Job

So, now that I'm back into the swing of things (hey batta hey batta hey batta batta batta, suWING batta) I have some more light to shed on the life choices:

Through not a small amount of discussion, I've decided that I need to do something local, something easy, but something that pays the bills so that I can devote my free time (when not Benvolio-wrangling) to the stuff that I really want to do (Promotions and Marketing for Eggplant), in the hopes that eventually, the stuff I want to do will be able to take me away from the stuff I have to do.

Savvy?

Anyroad, the position is in a warehouse about two and a half miles away from our house, and I'm called an "Inspector".  Basically it's a heavy lifting, labor intensive position with a company that contracts with the Postal Service.  Even more basically, my job is to make certain these 75 pound bags of mail get sorted in the right bins.  It pays only a few cents less per hour than my previous job as a recruiter through Coworx or Staffmark.

The downside is that it's a complete schedule adjustment for the family.  They've got to now get used to the fact that I'll be leaving home anywhere between 2 to 230 (walking or biking, respectively) in the afternoon and I won't be getting home until probably midnight (if walking or biking) or shortly after.

It will certainly be a speedbump, but hey, I've still got good suspension.  :)

So, more than likely a lot of the online stuff will be between the 12:30 - 2pm time frame.

That's the news.  As always, thanks for reading and thanks for your support! :)
