    My uncle's funeral is today. Obviously, I'm too far away to attend, which is a bit of a bummer, but I also wouldn't want to take my son out of school to go to a funeral for a person he has never met. Still sucks. He was a really cool dude and my dad really liked him.

    So now that makes two people on my mom's side that passed away this year. :(

    So sorry that you couldn't make it and for your loss. 😞

    Even after having 5 days off, still didnt want to come to work this morning. Currently configuring a master plan to win the lottery so I dont have to work ever again.

    I feel kind of disgusted with myself. I didn't do anything the whole day and shut out everyone saying that I want to study for my exam tomorrow, but I haven't started doing that either :(

    There is nothing wrong with taking time for you and nobody else.

    Which one of us hasn’t done that? Atleast you had the right intention.

    Interviewing for jobs & being consistently over-qualified or encountering the few who think I need an advanced degree to do my job (uh... I've got 20+ yrs experience... I've done fairly well sans advanced degree, thanks, then)... both sides have been an issue for a long time.

    What helps? Lighting candles? Praying to the gods/goddesses? Incense? Tarot cards? Church? Downplaying my resume? Done all of the above... none have proven helpful. Now what?

    It's been 2 years since my stepmother was called home. I know this day is hard on my Dad. I'll be glad when it's over.

    I'm sorry :(

    Same here. It's not that I don't like what I do, I just wish I had my own office space to be a complete introvert and I only had to talk to people because I wanted to!

    ... why are all the pictures ridiculously small now? It's like they don't want me to see all my zits and face blemishes. :lol:

    over-qualified = we're afraid you'll show us everything wrong and try to fix it when we really like it broken.
    advanced degree = someone is looking at paper requirements and isn't qualified to actually vet you for a position

    come back to the world of software development.... you know you miss the 1's and 0's

    I do miss all that is binary & would jump back in in a second if I felt I could revamp my skills & get a job. Outside that field, I'm at the mercy of the interviewers... gotta revamp my plan, cuz what I've been doing for many months isn't working at all. :(
