lathrielOk, yesterday sucked but today is going better, aside from a mysterious (literal) pain in my neck.
I fixed a bunch of problems on the site, so work is going more smoothly. I dropped off Jared's resume to Autistic Services on my lunch break, which looks like a nice place to work (although I didn't see a "starting rate of pay" for the Day Habilitation position... let's just hope it's equal or more to what he makes now in bumf***, NY). He's pretty stressed out about the whole potentially being unemployed/finding a new job thing, but I've sincerely got a good feeling about the whole situation. I think it's entirely likely and possible for him to secure a job before May, even, that pays better than what he gets now (less than $10.25/hour :p), and that starts, say, the second or third week of May. That way he can have some time off from work without worrying, and some time to acclimate to Buffalo before he gets back to the grind. I think that'd be nice :)
Unfortunately, my peaceful feelings on the issue don't help much considering I was job searching for 3 months and never technically got any of the jobs I applied for- I was just offered one by my entrepreneurial parents who already have two businesses that they own. Still, he's in a better boat- he's highly qualified and experienced for the line of work he's pursuing, and he doesn't have a busted spine that prevents him from applying to any job that might involve lifting or standing for long periods of time :p
Anyway, I'm positive he'll have a job in no time, if he just gets his resume out there.
So, aside from that, things are good.
Oh, and one more thing:
Today's TPaL update... PREPARE FOR THE SHOCKING TWIST. (ok maybe not so shocking, but it's a good one!) Coming in, like, 5 minutes! ;D
