One step takes me home. Two steps back on my own. Three skips to each stone. Four steps back and I'm gone...

Happy New Year!

New job. New city. New address.
I did not get into the PhD program, but I did get a new job.
So much has happened from my last post.
Laid off. Hired. Holidays. Packing. Moving. Training.
It has been a whirlwind.

So I went from vocational to art school. Who would have thunk it?
I feel a little more in my element, but I really need to brush up on all the databases and resources that go along with photography, digital art, fashion, and culinary. No one really cares about my knowledge of the LIRN Allied Health database.
One thing that I have found amusing about my new job that I guess just goes with being a librarian is that there is an assumption that I must know everything that the library has to offer.
A faculty member stopped by and asked me to find some resources, when it took me more than 2 minutes she walked away as if I knew nothing. Twenty-five minutes later when I had found 8 really decent resources that I emailed to her, I felt better.
I have learned that the interwebs have made people impatient.
Years ago I worked for someone who had something similar to this at his desk.

If you want the job done fast and for cheap it probably won't be very good. If you want cheap and good it probably won't get it done quickly. You get it? If you want it quick and good, well, it will cost ya.
Not quite sure where I was going with this...
Anyway, new job. New obstacles and adventures. 2015.
