BaD 2016 #05: By monday I'm full time

I think you'll start seeing a trend asto why I'm so "Away From Keyboard" for the latter end of 2015 and the start of 2016. I have to finish up my final paperwork onine to finalize my permenant hire status with my current job. As of monday I'll no longer be a "work mercenary" and be a full time worker once again.

In my life I haven't had much luck in finding work right off the bat. I find myself becoming a "work mercenary" (AKA temp worker) to be able to make ends meet, earn enough money to keep the corn flakes on the table. For the most part it's worked out with me. I get to check out a potential employer, add to my jack-of-all trades of various skills (I can balance spreadsheet ledgers to help refuel a nuclear powerplant) and decide if they are worth sticking around for.

Also it doesn't hurt that most of the temp to hire work I found actually works out, unlike most hire/fire jobs I've had over the years. If anything they've helped me keep employed during the years of hardtime harings. The only odd thing I've noticed is that more and more of my "work merc" jobs require a lot more paperwork than usual. And don't get me started on the Obamacare forms.

So back to it. If I'm lucky I'll get this done tonight so i can enjoy some gaming this weekend. I think I've earned it after starting off this job with only a month's work training in just two weeks.

Congrats on the new hire! I've had a similar part-timer job history.

That's great news! I've done temp work, certainly not as much as you, but that lack of permanence is scary when providing for a family.

I did temp work way back. It got me a full time job, but then I quit out of boredom. I was young and stupid. I should've kept that job.
