I revised my budget today. It’s amazing to think of the differences in my financial security at the end of a year by just manipulating the amount of income. I could not have continued for long working at my previous job. The salary as a starting teacher in most NJ towns sould not be too much better.
Working as a techie, even at a starting salary, would mean that I would not have to live paycheck to paycheck. If I get a job in the city and drop my car expenses, I would not have any money concerns at all.
It’s amazing what playing with a few numbers will do to your outlook on things.
So, the question is, did you put in for that job at ETS yet?
Yessirree. I sent in a beautiful cover letter and resume, have a friend in the company talking me up, and I plan on calling tomorrow to follow up. I’ve been sending cover letters and resumes out in droves the past few days. I’ll keep everyone posted if I hear anything positive. 🙂
