(And I know I’m the only person I know who actually watches Nightline with any regularity. I learned this habit from my parents, who used to stay up “late” with Ted Koppel when I was in high school, and the sound of it always was and still is oddly comforting to me.) But last night it was just current host Bill Weir and me. Ever heard of Tom Shadyac? Probably not, and no one could blame you for that. But I’m guessing you’ve heard of a few of the movies he’s directed. Any of these sound familiar? Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Liar, Liar, The Nutty Professor, Bruce Almighty, Patch Adams, and I Now Prounounce You Chuck and Larry. Now, these works of art may not be Shake...

Unemployment itself is bad enough and prolonged unemployment, described as those who have been searching for more than 6 months, is quite simply put… a nig...

Going back to work takes work. Work It If you haven’t been in the office groove for a while, you may need to familiarize yourself with the latest computer programs and other technologies. Take a refresher course online or at your local community college. Read job ads in your career field of choice to find out what new skills employers require.

I really like my current employer and hope that there will be some task that I can...

Still a work in progress. Feeling much more confident now, though. Still no regrets on my chosen path. Funny how my last two reflections posts echo each other. Variations on a theme. I did not notice this until after I made the post and looked back at my last one.
