Ironic, isn't it?

Over on LCT I just this morning posted about falling asleep at my desk - and how I've been starting to get bored with this job. It has a few important perks, like free skiing and a fair amount of flexibility - both of which are really great and hard to find, but the pay is low and we're all overworked and micromanaged...I work with a lot of unhappy people. Even though I think I have the best of anyone, I really think my anxiety started after starting this job - there's just a lot of stuff to keep track of.

Anyway, about an hour after I posted that entry, I ran into a local business owner who I know, and he asked me what I do at my job. I told him pretty specifically - he's been advertising for someone to run his e-commerce website - and I had a feeling he was going in that direction. I was right. He said he had planned on getting in touch with me today to see if I was interested about talking about the job. I said absolutely, I would love to talk with him about it. That will give me a chance to find out more details about the job itself, if I'm even qualified, possibly pay, benefits, etc. The ad did say that they would train the right person, so that's encouraging.

Just thought it was interesting...we're going to talk after the holiday weekend is over.

Good luck! I'm sorry that your job is not as intereting as you would like and that you are micro managed. I hope that you end up with an interesting job that allows you some freedom in what you do.
