To follow up on my previous two posts about getting jobs, I've recently acquired a permanent position at the service rep agency that hired me as a temp before. I'll be making twice what I make in my current full-time job and I'll get to work from home which will make it easy for me to keep this job when I go back to school. Also, my boss at my current job wants to keep me on to work on the one day a week I'm available, so I'll have plenty of extra income and a place to fall-back if the new job craps out. By working at it in stages, first getting any job, then a temp position and foot in the door at this better job, I was able to finally acheive the work situation I'd been wanting all along. And I was still productive in the mean time.
