|My Current Lack of Subtlety
Sunday, January 17th, 2010
Hello all. I’ve mentioned this before, but for the past two-and-a-half years I’ve been looking for a new job and a fresh start only to be thwarted by my previous existence through either an interviewer’s inductive reasoning or just the name incongruity on a background check.
The resume background check is probably the most infuriating as it sets us up as deceivers, and consequently unworthy of employment, from the shear fact that we can’t afford to jump through the arbitrary hoops to begin with. Add to that the particulars of being in the media industry in this technological age and stealth been a complete impossibility.

Anxiety
Sunday, October 11th, 2009
Today, a short interlude.
I’m sure y’all wanted me to go back and finish my dry analysis of media deployment and industry focus, right? Ya, me neither.
Anyway, I was reading last weeks NYTimes and the magazine’s cover story got me. It was about naturally anxious people and, of course, the hamsters powering the windmills of my mind went into overdrive.
