Busily Employed

Wow, three weeks has gone by quickly, and I'm settled into my new job at Chase in the mega-plex on the north side of town.  Just me and about 10,500 other staff there.  They even have fun facts posted on the website about how large an office park it is.

Following librarianship?  Not at the moment.  I just graduated summa cum laude with a (technically, my school doesn't recognize the cum laudes at grad level) 4.0 GPA from Ohio Dominican University's LEAD program.  I remember back in undergrad how my college buddies said I couldn't handle business school.  Now, with two Master's, I'm looking to teach in graduate business school.  (Just the intro. writing/team building class).  I need to check with the LEAD lead instructor.  It's $2100 per six-week course, and one or two of those would offset the diminished pay at Chase.

Still, no complaints.  I will be starting my 2nd shift and earning that 10% differential in about six weeks.  It will be weird working Thursdays through Sundays and until midnight, but it means I only have to drive my ol' jalopy of a car to work four days a week.

So that's it for now.  More to come when I have time to discuss all things library.
