What a day!

So I attended the Sonicwall sales demo today and that was pretty informative and cool.  Got to spend some time talking with my old friend Jamie afterwards when I saw her in the Hyatt.  I was telling her of my current situation and she asked to help me out by touching base with some of her contacts.  I had no idea that meant immediately!!  She is just plain AWESOME.  When I got home she contacted me to let me know she had already talked to a few people including the head of Security for the Hyatt.  Nice guy.  He and I talked and I am headed back to the hotel later today to meet with him.  He says he has lots of contacts and he would be more than willing to put in a good word for me, as well as maybe being able to bring me on part time there at the Hyatt to do security work.  Now that is some exciting news!  Also I was able to reach this woman at TekSystems that I have been emailing with since Monday about a Project Management position back at SSA.  It would be good to go back as long as I am not back in the NCC and have to climb that darn hill every day!  The money would be right in range for what I am looking for too.
Also, I just finished filling out an online application with MICROS for an open position they have contacted me about.  Not too sure on the details, but it seems as though FINALLY things are moving.  Trying to maintain my perspective, I have been through these waves before where it seems like SOMETHING MIGHT break and then weeks go by without hearing anything.  But today I am pretty upbeat because yesterday was not a good day.  I emailed my mother this morning to let her know how discouraged I was becoming.  Why is it that it ALWAYS HAS to be darkest before the dawn????
Talked with a recruiter for KForce today as well about a PC position here in Baltimore, close to Woodlawn. He has promised to get back to me in a few days.  He called me last week when I wasn't home and I didn't check his message until Monday.  He seems very optimistic.  But again, not going to get too up until I get some interviews.  So here is the breakdown of the things going on today;

• KForce - PC job in the Baltimore/ Woodlawn area
• TekSystems - PM position back at SSA for Lockheed Martin
• Hyatt - PT Security job with the hotel or maybe even some recommendations/ referrals to other places
• MICROS - Position for PM here in Baltimore, filled out online application
• Sonicwall - Attended sales presentation for free lunch and demo

Well, we will just have to wait and see what pans out.  Somewhere in there I am sure some shenanigans will break out.  If not there, we will see what happens tomorrow when I go to Mondawmin and talk with the Child Support counselor about my case.  Hopefully something can be done to give me some relief on what I owe so my son's mother can relax.  She must not know that "I" know she is sweating ME because she is in hot water and her wages are being garnished. I am not the fool she tries to make me out to be.
