Issue’s continue with my back. The doc said he wanted me to continue light duty and highly recommended I try to find another position that doesn’t require lots of heavy labor.
My main goal since I was originally hired by Cox back in 1999 was to work my way into the engineering dept. Either design or headend. It takes years of experience to do that though. I believe I posted before about applying for the maintence position and was a finalist, but didn’t get it. With Comcast, there’s a dept that would actually put me a step closer to that, the LMC. Its basically a NOC.
After months of watching the internal postings, a position opened up and I applied for it. I had a phone interview this past Tuesday and felt pretty good about it. I then recieved a call Weds night requesting an in person interview this coming Monday. Yay!
Thanksgiving ended up being pretty good this year. I went down to Fry’s and sat there most the night until opening at 5am. Talk about a bunch of asses, people were actually pushing and shoving to get in. The police had a blockade set up and it was kind of funny watching people try to push past them unsuccessfully.
But I got some shopping done, a few things picked up. Went back to pick up Meg so we could hit up a few other stores. After getting back home, fell asleep about noon and woke up at 9pm.
That’s it for now.
