Looking up?
I just got a signal from my boss that I might lose my job in the next month or so. This is a double-edged sword I think . . .

I'm a loyal kind of guy that doesn't like to dissapoint. The company I interned with was one I believed in, both the product and the leadership. I still talk to the old gang all the time, but when I left them it was because they didn't have a place for me. So right now I'm working on contracts. That means that I'll work at a place for 6-9 months and then get moved, if theres a position, somewhere else. Otherwise I'm out on the street. I took the job because there weren't too many out there, when I got out of college. Working contracts leaves me in a hard place to put my loyalty.

The company I'm with I never see because I'm on-site and the people I work for won't need me once the contract is up next month. I've likened my employer with a pimp and I'm their tech hoe. When they see someone lookin' for what I got they put me on the corner showin' some leg and if they like what they see I'm with them and then I'm gone.

I've updated my resume and have been putting it out and actually have an interview either tomorrow or friday, just waiting word. My trouble with this had been that if the company wants me, I'll need to submit my two week notice. My contract doesn't end for a month and I don't want to leave them hanging in limbo at the end of the project, although I can get them to a fairly safe place before then, but that would leave my company in search for someone who could pick up the peices and complete a project with only two weeks or so left on it. My boss just called me and, I've never been good at picking up signals, I believe he gave me a sign that they may not have a contract to bid me on once this one is up. Taking away the pressure of leaving the company, but adding pressure to find a new job by the time the contract ends.

Of course this is all assuming I get the job I interview for this week. I've gone through talking on the phone, and that person's manager, two online tests on skill level and now they want to interview me. We shall see. This isn't half as complicated as I make it out to be running through my head, probably doesn't make too much since, but there you have it.
