Merry Christmas To Me! (New Job)
My search for employment is now finally over. Yesterday morning I accepted a web design position with a company in Edmonton. I’ll be designing web layouts for their clients as well as helping to develop web application interfaces, and doing a bit of work with Macromedia RoboHelp to develop tutorial and help file solutions.
I feel extremely fortunate to have been able to find a job at this time of year because I realize that a lot of people are still out of work. I could not have asked for a better Christmas gift this year. My first day on the job will be January 4th. Wish me luck!

Thanks Steve. I'm sure with your talent, you'll have someone knocking on your door before long with a job offer. I know that it's extremely hard being patient though, trust me. I guess I'll tell you what everyone told me along the way: "Good things come to those who wait".Comment Permalink
