When we last left Jesse V. aka ‘the naturewitch’ he felt confident that he would find a new job, a better job, by August ’08. However, it’s now the middle of September and we find Jesse still at his old place of employment. Let’s go now and try to unearth the reasons for this troubling situation.
Investigative Team: Jesse, what happened? Why are you still working at a job you can’t stand? Are you not living in a city of millions, surely there have been better opportunities.
Jesse V: Maybe we can talk about this when I’m not at work.
IT: But the people want to know. What’s been happening in your life and are you leaving your job soon?
JV: I may be forced to leave my job if you don’t quit asking me these questions while I'm working.
IT: (laughs) Well said old boy, well said. Rumours have been circulating that you referred to your Bachelor of Education as a ‘Bachelor of Unemployment,’ is there any truth to this?
JV: (Chuckling) ahh yes, I have said that on a few occasions.
IT: So no luck with the school boards then, but what about other jobs. Surly you’ve applied at other places – any luck there?
JV: If by luck you mean unmitigated failure, then yeah I’ve had a lot of ‘luck.’
IT: How intriguing. Do you find it paradoxical that your current job requires you to have a B.Ed, or even more absurdly, a master’s degree?
JV: Yes, yes I do.
IT: Is it also true that you stopped updating your blog on account of your job dissatisfaction?
JV: It's complicated.
IT: Well maybe your blog can now outline your quest to find your purpose in life, or at the very least a better job. Maybe your blog could focus on life #9?
JV: Maybe...
