also it's hard to find a job when you're not there. experience teaches me that hiring parties generally think out of towners are too much work. i might line up temp legal stuff just as security, though.

i don't have a job either because the job i had last summer doesn't hire w/o bar results but i am exploring other options

― jergins, Saturday, 25 April 2009 23:42 (fifteen years ago) link
i am counting down the days because i am bored a lot at work.

― tehresa, Saturday, 25 April 2009 23:45 (fifteen years ago) link

― trouble child (harbl), Saturday, 25 April 2009 23:46 (fifteen years ago) link
that would be a concern when you move to a sucky place

About 344,069 people are unemployed and looking for work in Washington, the third record month in a row and topping last month's record 330,572.
Seattle's unemployment rate jumped an entire point to 8.8 percent -- topping the rate during the dot-com bust. The Seattle rate is the highest of all the months on record going back to January 2000.

― trouble child (harbl), Saturday, 25 April 2009 23:54 (fifteen years ago) link
also jergins i am curious what places you don't think suck
― trouble child (harbl), Saturday, 25 April 2009 23:55 (fifteen years ago) link
nyc was 8.1% for march 09. can only imagine it's higher now.

― trouble child (harbl), Sunday, 26 April 2009 00:01 (fifteen years ago) link
i don't know how you would since i imagine most people work in different boroughs than they live.
― tehresa, Sunday, 26 April 2009 00:01 (fifteen years ago) link
what is that a list of, jergs?
i believe they do keep borough stats but not neighborhood
― trouble child (harbl), Sunday, 26 April 2009 00:02 (fifteen years ago) link

hey harbs i was jk about baltimore sucking. i have no idea. i've spent all of three days there, as a tourist. i think it might be kind of an interesting place. i have no idea. urban exploration? lots of brick? heart of the east coast? hey a city's got john waters and matmos and amon repping for it, it can't be bad, right? great ballpark there. massive abandoned factories. birthplace of babe ruth. i'm into it.
― jergins, Sunday, 26 April 2009 05:48 (fifteen years ago) link
lol @ face saving attempt
― tehresa, Sunday, 26 April 2009 05:49 (fifteen years ago) link
it's ok jergins.
i was there for like 12 weeks last summer and i found it didn't suck or not suck, it's just a place to live. i liked my job ok and people in the office didn't seem miserable or overworked. i don't wanna live somewhere really cold anymore (e.g. where i grew up) or in the south (too hot and southern). also relatively cheap. and i think i am just a permanent east coaster. the midwest bothers me. it is really windy and people are weird and kind of annoying. anyway i'm not looking for some place people idealize like portland or something. i just wanna live somewhere average. like sort of good but sort of bad!
― trouble child (harbl), Sunday, 26 April 2009 13:39 (fifteen years ago) link
i don't care if you say it sucks anyway. i was just wondering because it seems like a place you would like.
― trouble child (harbl), Sunday, 26 April 2009 13:42 (fifteen years ago) link
i also considered milwaukee and philadelphia but eh. milwaukee is like a much colder version of cbus, which i am not that excited about to begin with. philadelphia the office i was looking at is not hiring any recent grads this year because of $$$. oh well! also i had an interview for prestigious nyc job and was sort of relieved when they didn't like me :)
― trouble child (harbl), Sunday, 26 April 2009 13:46 (fifteen years ago) link
prestigious should be in lol quotes
haloli cld hook u up at an ip firm here maybe but fuck nyc for the next few years
― tehresa, Sunday, 26 April 2009 13:59 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah i don't wanna live in nyc at all though. also i have not taken a single ip course.
