Thinking about my friend

He lost his job back in January.  Last time I checked he was still looking for one.  Unfortunately in this down economy there isn’t much in the way of leads and jobs.  I don’t think he is really up for a job change but he could look at some Wall St jobs and could relocate.

Last I heard he is taking some classes to expand his training to help out moving forward in the job hunt.  I’m trying to find something down here in Texas , but not sure he is really ready to move.  However he may have to move where the jobs are.  I really hope he finds something soon…

Four Things [I got tagged]

Before I get started, I think this is somewhat funny.  I have Google alerts set up for my name [tazdog] so I get this email that has [tazdog] tagged and I was like, weird, I haven’t posted anything.  So that Google alert led me to BioTeck’s site were he tagged me for this Four Things Meme..   SOOO this meme is about four things in various categories that you need to share and then tag a few others…
