Some of my detractors and nay-sayers might be interested to note that after long weeks of hunting (with seven interviews this week alone) I finally landed my first full-time permanent job in five years. It doesn't pay much and really doesn't pay enough for me to save anything, but it will cover my rent, utilities, and groceries and maybe give me a springboard to find work that will allow me to get a job that does pay enough for me to save and prepare to head overseas at long last.  |

Proofreading, which may amuse some people, considering my typos here, but as I've said before, I find this type too small to see. |

Congratulations. Pay your bills, look for a future job, plan, and do what is necessary. Some of the pressure is off. |

It does seem some of my future is in the hands of Messers Kim, Bush, et. al. I wonder what all this hubbub is doing to Asian jobs. I've not had time to check the boards here much. |

Good proofreaders know that the Latinism et al. has only one period.
Cheers and best wishes, banksie!!  |
