i've got a feeling

so it has been awhile. i haven't posted and even though i had this urge to post something, I just really never got around to it.

these days, i am still in new york. this year will be 5 years on this dreadful coast. when people say the west coast is the best coast, it's not a lie. i'm at the point where i love my social activities but i still see no point as to why i should be working where i am. i got a new job within the same company last year. let's just call it a forced non-promotion. despite all of my hard work that has been noticed by many others outside of my department, i still have not gotten that raise or title change. they incorporated two jobs, that were both at the manager level prior to this, into one job for me.

*note to self: Obama signed an addendum to the Equal Pay Act of 1963 back in January of 2009. This law basically enforces equal pay for men and women who are doing the same job. maybe my company hasn't read it yet?

that being said. i've decided to give up. i'm giving myself until june in this place and if i can't find a job back in Seattle then it is splits ville for me. ideally. i want to find a company who would pay for my move home. that would be a dream come true. fingers crossed.

more news to come on that front at a later date.

i'm going to Maine in a couple of weeks for the national toboggan championships. it should be a great way to play in the snow and drink a lot with my aunt over a short weekend span.

later.
