Careers

I want to leave my job.

Certain people think I should start the process of looking at other jobs and thinking of other jobs before leaving.
Certain other people are more extreme and think I should know what I’m going to do before I leave. They don’t think that eliminating one more path is enough.

I don’t care.
I don’t want to do this anymore and it makes me sick, I just know it.

But, I have no clue what to do next or what I can do.

*sigh*

My Linux Story

Oh, um, I just remembered about the feed so if any LinuxChix are reading this, I didn’t post this just because I’ve suddenly signed up to the live feed and I want to feel validated. I just got asked questions by a guy and he said post it and I figured why not. Really.

Eeep.

Yes, unfortunately he doesn’t know many technical ladies (and I don’t consider myself one…). I’ve just stumbled along into all this. Not much skills at all. Just enjoyment. But maybe Trinidad is seriously developing and we might one day have a LinuxChix chapter here. Wouldn’t that be awesome!

So, this is the Linux story that came from him asking me about why I love macs. I’m not sure if the log transcript is edited yet (names yes…but…).

So, I will go into Linux story later.

But, Shivan Jaikaran (Trini, found his website from T&T Computer Society links…well either that or the TTlug links) asked me how I got into Macs. I didn’t tell him about the obviously evil plotting of my friend Jamie. I mean, he *had* to give his then fiancée reveilles‘ his old PowerMac (yes?) running OS X Panther. And then I had to be staying by her for a month and I am an internet addict. And she was new to things then too. So, I would ask her questions and she’d be like, oh we have to ask him and then when he came over, he’d proudly show off the lovely OS X. And I wasn’t a believer then, because it felt slow (very slow internet on dial-up and my windows machine with the same dial-up felt faster; ok! so I was coming down off of cable internet).

By Thomasso’s Request…

Well, if you recall my last post, Thomasso requested a recording, so here it is!

Ari, Ari, I love you!

Btw, never used this upload option in WP before since I upgraded, so I hope it works or I didn’t do anything incorrectly.
