Find People Now....And I mean Now!

If there's anyone I want to find, it's a person find assistant who actually doesn't hate their job. Every single other assistant I've met in this biz also regrets ever getting into the industry. I just was to find person who can get me out of here. The only way I can distract myself is to read rants like this one to the cop who pulled me over when I was sixteen.

Ever seen The Devil Wears Prada? My life isn't quite that bad, but it feels that way sometimes. Now I know why there's that stereotype of the abused assistant. It's because it's true! The worst that's happened to me so far is having a latte thrown at me, which isn't that bad, I guess, but it's still annoying. (It missed.) What's really more frustrating is seeing these young kids promoted over me. Yeah, they've been with the company a little longer, but doesn't life experience count for something? I mean, I've lived so long that I have to find people to stay in touch with them! Don't get me wrong, I don't use people search engines all the time, just the down time. Most of the time, I'm so busy! Besides, sometimes it actually helps me job when my boss needed help tracking down an old business associate, I did a phone number search, because I'm useful like that.

I finally got a job!!! Yayayayay! I love CraigsList! Seriously, so my New Year's resolution was to find a job (finally) and so Jan. 1, I spent the entire day searching and applying for jobs. I got called two days later for an interview and got hired on the spot! How insane is that. It's an awesome job too! I am working as an assistant at a major record label (I can't say which one!) and looking forward to working my way up.I started last Monday, and it has been great. There has been some bitch work, but mostly I am learning a lot about "the biz" as they say. It's cool cause they don't really micromanage me and when there is time I can do people searches, check my email, or go on MySpace or whatever. Although they do keep me pretty busy, so I hardly have time to do even an address search or to find someone really. They have me looking up a lot of stuff on the internet, but sometimes my boss has me look up weird personal crap like phentermine assist, which he had me order because he thinks he is fat (such a diva) and this supposedly works. Anyways, I am going to go get coffee for the office, be back later.

Hello, my name is Brad and I am unemployed. I feel like I'm at a support group, but I am just getting used to that sentence. I recently quit my job and I am finding myself having to admit that more frequently lately. Although, maybe I should stop being ashamed and feel proud of my situation, because I mean, I put myself in it. It's my own doing, so I should probably embrace it. It's great so far, I get to do random crap like start blogs, and watch daytime TV in my boxers. Awesome. It's a nice break, but I know I'm going to so bored in a week. But, hey, I figured I needed the break. See, I was a corporate lawyer for ten years, and I had an absolute meltdown about three months ago, so I decided that I needed to quit. Don't get me wrong, I love being a lawyer, but I need to find a less stressful and high profile firm. I have actually been thinking of starting my own, but I still have to convince some of my buddies to come with me. So, yeah I applied for unemployment. It's nice to see my tax dollars again. Oh how I missed them so! I'll be back with more updates soon! I promise, I have no life now.
