So yeah, it was nearly a year ago that I was laid off from FedEx. I wasn’t especially bitter, though I was sad about leaving one year short of qualifying for retiree health care. Â Anyhoo…
Today I interviewed for a new job. Retail. Yeah, retail. It seems like a step down, but it’s something I’m sure I’ll enjoy. Hopefully, I’ll be working in the cosmetics department of the nearly built Bloomingdale’s in Santa Monica.
So let’s get some good wishes going for a little part-time job and (more importantly) health care. I’m not going to get all political and shit, but there’s no way a self-employed couple can afford decent health care in the US.
The second interview is next week. Here’s hoping!
