Well, it's 9 am and I haven't got out of bed this early in the last two weeks. I'm a college graduate and musician and in the coming weeks I hope you all can learn a little about me. I like to cook and read and act abraisive. I know that it's rediculous to think that anyone else really cares about what's going on in my life or what I think about a topic or idea, but, after some reflection, I realized it's about the catharsis of the writer. Selfish, I know.
With that said, there's been a few things I've been meaning to get off of my chest...
I recently just quit a recruiter job. Hindsight 20/20 it was a bad idea to quit when I did, but that is a different story. In the past few weeks I have been been noticing a trend in the interview (for recruiter positions): everyone is looking for a leader or a self-motivated candidate. Now, after having some experience in the field, I can't help but ask myself, "how in the hell can leadership be put in the same sentence as recruiter?" You could train a fucking chimp to do that work. What I didn't understand at first, was that they want you to stay as a recruiter. They don't have any intention of promoting you, they don't want any of your managing traits. They want you to be miserable, they want you to be robotic.
The lack of funds has got me considering some pretty rash actions. I mean, I thought about doing the military thing... then I thought about something else.
At least there's still some good bands out there to listen to. In the coming weeks I hope to talk about some new albums, maybe recommend some, you know that sort of thing. It won't be some crazy dissection of song meanings or anything like that, I promise. I'm not that big of a flake.
I guess, if there's anything else to talk about, I can just post it...
Talk to you soon.
