So, I think we can all agree that 2011 has been a difficult year. It’s certainly been a personal roller coaster.
I was let go from a job of almost 5 years when the company I was working for lost their contract with Exxon Mobil. {As a sidebar, I happened to see the EM project manager at a store in Emeryville yesterday. I showed amazing restraint, and did not ask her how she was feeling about destroying the lives of so many people with her company’s policies. But I digress…]
Jennifer and I moved to a wonderful place in Emeryville, and we did a lot of cycling around. Sure I had free time, but there are so many cool shops around that it was hard to not be able to go in and get what we wanted.
In August, I finally began work again for a contracting company. And boy was I bored there. I wasn’t doing anything close to geology, and it was really not a good fit.
In November, I started interviewing with an environmental company in Walnut Creek, and last week, I received an offer letter. I’ll be starting the new year with a new job. I’ll be a project geologist, and working with some really fascinating people.
