Job hunting with Calvin and Hobbes

About 2 years ago I was posting about my job hunt circa 2012.  Oh how things have changed (and how they haven’t).  I’m better qualified, have a better sense of what I (don’t) want to do, and I don’t live in goddamn Harrisburg so this round should be a whole lot more bearable.

It’s actually pretty exciting.  I’ll let Calvin and Hobbes explain the rest.

Not going to lie, I still get choked up everytime I read this.

August 29th is my last day

Big, big day for govinbhai. Today I had a chat with my boss about my future.  Whether I’m staying at my current job for another year, enrolling in a master’s program, still interested in PhD programs, etc.

None of the above.  We agreed that my last day at work is August 29th.  My 24th birthday is going to be fantastic.

“Where do you want to be when you’re 30? Decide that and reverse engineer it from there.” My boss tells me. She was super cool about it.  Told me about a bunch of her friends whose work I’d be interested in.

Time for govinbhai to figure out what the fuck he’s doing with his life for the umpteenth time since graduating.  Wish me luck during these next five months.  At the very least, have a couch I can crash on when I’m homeless a year from now.
