Ooh, really good tip!! Luckily I happened to update my resume before traveling anyway – I included it in my proposal “package” to ask for a Leave of Absence from my job.

Sherry – I absolutely, unequivocally do NOT want to go back to an office. I don’t know how I could handle it after experiencing the freedom of traveling and living in other parts of the world. To that end, I’m pushing full steam ahead on building websites and traffic so I can be location independent.

But in the mean time, I think I’ll need an office job to pay off my credit card.

The florescent lighting sucked the life out of me and fried my brain cells….worse than carpel tunnel.

Dave – your going back to an office?!

Dave – I hope you’ve made some progress in updating your resume now that you’ve been back a couple of months! Hopefully your next career will be far away from florescent lighting – though I work from home and still eat at my desk.

“I could come up with nothing but faint memories of bad florescent lighting and eating at my desk.”

hehe, so true! I don’t know how I am going to go back to working in an office. At least I’m using this break as an opportunity to change careers while I’m still (sorta) young.
