Labor Day

With the setting sun today, the summer season is assumed ended. The sun sets at 740pm making the day seem so much shorter and hints at the soon to come short days of winter. It is surprising to me that I have spent the entire summer without a paying job.

I had a huge interview last week with with an interviewing committee at Union Pacific Rail Road. This was my second interview with UP and the stakes never seemed higher. I was unusually nervous before the interview and I hope it didn't show. At one point this summer I went 60 days without a single interview. Maybe the economy is recovering but certainly not here. If this doesn't come through for me, I need to think up a new plan. Perhaps even moving to a city with more jobs.
