Job Search Update

Two-and-a-half months into my job search here in Boston, I am finally starting to break through a bit and get a little work here and there. Last week, I finished up a stretch of working for Blackwell Publishing for two weeks. They simply ran out of work for me so they let me go. I wasn't terribly heart broken but it was nice to get a paycheck for that time. Last Friday, I interviewed for a photography/videography position at Draper Laboratory where Mrs. Wright works and where Violet has interned in the summers. The man that I interviewed with liked the photos and videos that I showed him. At the end of the interview, he said my stuff looked promising. They are interviewing a few more applicants this week and then I should hear back from them. In the meantime, I was able to find three days of work for this week (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday). I'll be at JFK Library in South Boston calling people to tell them whether or not they were able to get tickets for an event that is coming up. Essentially, I get to make or break people's days. I'm glad that this worked out so that I'm not just sitting around the house waiting to hear back from Draper. You can continue to pray that God would grant me the Draper job as it seems like it would be an enjoyable position and would provide stableness with it being a permanent position.
