Interview

I will be interviewing tomorrow over the telephone for a job in Yellowknife. The mister and I are looking for a dramatic life change so this should do the trick....if I am offered the position that is.

At first I didn't want to apply for the position because I couldn't imagine living that far north, but after a while I started to appreciate the exotic aspects of such a location. 24 hrs of daylight and 24 hours of darkness are something that should shake up the daily routine at least for a short while. Surrounded only by land as far as the eye can see is interesting and a drastic change from population dense Korea. Living with a moderately sized aboriginal population could be a breath of fresh air compared to white conservative London Ontario.

The cost of moving over 4000km to an isolated town with only one road going into it is not something I'm looking forward to. BUT, the pay is very high and the experience may be worth it. We'll see how the interview goes.

Still unemployed...

...and looking for work in all the wrong places....or so it seems. I've applied to numerous job postings (all professional jobs) and only one "paraprofessional" and the only interview I've had so far is for the "paraprofessional" job. I'm a little disenchanted with Library Science at the moment. I'm also a bit tired of waiting for something to change. I've had a professional librarian position (temporary of course) so it's not like I don't have a variety of experience, but is it possible to have too much variety? I would think not - but the library world is a complex and confusing realm of existence.

Anyway, I'm still looking for a job and in the meantime I research topics that interest me and catch up on reading that's been piling up. Not a bad way to spend the summer no doubt but I like change and it's past due.
