i land a good job and no red panda?
JoeUser, why hast thou foresaken me?
Satans..... hints..... I'm a mo bro!
Seriously.

which means i wont have to work at home anymore
That rules honestly.
Working at home sucks. If you work at home you can never actually go home. But I still have to do this job where I drive 3,000 miles a month until they organize some other training. augh.

i actually dont like it
Or, conversely, again, stop requiring a PhD or MA/MS and only want to pay $25,000 a year! I can get that working full time + some overtime at fucking Target.
Until you have ink on paper saying you have a gig, you ain't landed shit.
also, zip/anyone else, my friend who works at the goog said
"Right, it's like a very schoomzy job.
I would email the recruiter asking for a NY position for sure though. No harm trying. Recruiters get a commission for every successful hire. Milk that. "
in a case like that, should i look at the nyc office's job listings and suggest one, or how would i word the response? basically say i'm not looking to relocate right now but would be open to consider any open positions in the ny office if they are available? or what
Wouldn't hurt to have a few NY office positions in mind that you know that they are hiring for and that you know are a better fit for your background. Then just call up the recruiter and throw it out there. "Hey, thanks for getting in touch, not really all that interested in the sales gig, but I was wondering if you could help me get set up with a few of these gigs in NY..." etc..
Like your guy said, if they get a commission off of each new hire that's pretty good incentive to play dice with you.
I don't enjoy it too much though. I like having a clear separation of work and home. When I do work from home, I set up camp at the kitchen table instead of at my desk. That helps a little.
Huh. I'm going to relate this to contracting, because every phone interview for me is like screening a hooker.
Do I have to explain who the hooker is?

I always want to go sit on the couch, but I'm afraid of falling asleep if i do haha
I do like having robe and slippers while I'm at home.
Not going to like doing it in the summer though, cause my apartment has no AC.
It's been said, though, that one of the big problems with working from home is that you're always at work. My job often demands that I be available and working at all hours anyway, so really it's not a huge difference for me.
Ya, I imagine I'd be more into working from home if I weren't able to work during my commute (~1.5hr each way)
I can run statistics, do calculations, and make suggestions at home though. That and conference calls. Lots of calls. Questions. Questions that were already answered in emails and reports if people could just read the fucking things I send them. But oh well...job security.
I mean, I have my cell phone, but I don't think I've ever received a work related call on it before.
Who wants jobs I got jobs!
I need an after school computer teacher, video game teacher and video game/computer assistant. All in LA working with kids. Yaay!
Seriously anyone want a job?
To be fair, none of the buttons were labeled.
Now they are and all is well.
also goddamnit i should've edited my resume this weekend because now i have to reply to this guy with an updated one (he contacted me based off of a resume thats over a year old)
and i probably need to reply tonight at the latest
and i need to find some ny positions and see if he can do anything for me
but i dont have a copy of my resume on my work computer and i shouldnt work on it at work anyway so i need to wait till i go home
i was so unprepared for this
it's efficient!

Have you met me? I'm pretty cool. I also write and format resumes for a low low fee of awesome.
Such clients include:
Neville
Jordyn
Crackedlens
People in the real world that you don't know
true. i'll at least look at listings. can't really do the resume as i don't have a copy here. it's also badly formatted, annoyingly, as i previously did it in pages and now need to do it in word and i need to make it formatted right.
what's a good font
how much is a low low fee of awesome
is it lard bread and weed or something
lets just say.....
the key is to stretch your jaw out before you start
I don't smoke, but the lard bread isn't a bad place to start.
If you're interested in said resume services, rates and discussion of the project can take place via PM. I'll be happy to get people hooked up with jorbs.
My managers know that I have other, better paying freelance gigs and often would ask if I could leave early or if I could have the day if the circumstances were right. I never left or didn't come in when we were busy (which is a rarity itself.)
Just frustrated. Grr. Problem drinking and OU baseball to ensue. Wasn't expected it at all. Sucks after finally getting a decent night's sleep to wake up to an email from your boss saying, "Turn your timesheet and keys in today."
I'm going in to meet and 'interview' with that agency tomorrow
Woo!

Company is also apparently having a hiring fair today. Jobs for everyone!!!
I just updated mine and was going to try a reformat, but lost motivation. Change frightens and confuses me, but what format examples might you have? Mine is at three pages now and all I can think of is adding to it.
Stale has a pretty cool format, from what I remember.

Were your responsibilities at each job pretty much the same?
I just club you in the face with awesome.
