being unemployed makes you feel inadequate. first there is the fact that you were chosen to be layedoff instead of someone else. I'm OK with that part. then there is the dozens of people you send your resume off to often times spending time to modify it so that it fits that job perfectly. Only to receive nothing in response. most places don't even say no thank you just nothing which seams to say "you are not worth my time and effort" I have got at least one nice rejection letter. that's better than nothing.
That being said I have had a few more nibbles. the person I have been dealing with in the helicopter company in Kent responded saying he was looking for other work and if he found a new job then the company might hire me to replace him. I have also been speaking with the Navy. not something that I would of thought about myself. the recruiter sent out an email or two to all people studying engineering at the UW informing us of the positions open as a nuclear officer. I am too old to be a normal officer but I do qualify for as a position as a instructor at Nuclear power school in SC. from what I can tell its equivalent to teaching at the community college level. if I get the Job I would be a commissioned officer in the Navy. the Navy is flying me out to the school in goose creak SC on the 11-13th of march. so if nothing else I get a free plane ride out of the deal. I'll try and keep everyone posted.
