Thoughts on my new job

Well, here we are.

Months of waiting and I finally found a job in Michigan in the field I want to be in.

Moving to Saginaw was a little weird because I've never really visited the place. I go by it all the time on I-75 but I've never even saw the city until my interview. I haven't explored too much, but the area that I live in doesn't appear to be too bad and the complex I live in seems to be safe.

So far, so good.

The job has gone well thus far even though I really haven't been asked to do too much and I walked into the job during the slow period for Saginaw sports. Everyone that I've worked with has been pretty cool and has helped me out a lot. Once high school basketball (boys and girls) swings into full gear, I'll find out really what it's all about to work the sports desk on a week night.

We cover 45 high schools in the Saginaw area and also cover Central Michigan, the Saginaw Spirit, the Great Lake Loons, Alma college and Saginaw Valley State University, along with some other smaller local colleges.

Again, everything is pretty good so far.

I'm trying to find another job in the area as well. It would be something for during the day. I work a lot of nights and weekends now and have uber amounts of time to spare. Not sure what the job market is like in this area, but if it's like the rest of Michigan, it probably isn't very good. Maybe I'll find something in this busy holiday season.

I'm hopefully heading back to Harbor Springs for Thanksgiving next week. My sister and Steve are having a family dinner at her new house. It'll be the first time we won't be heading down to Tennessee in a long time. Going to miss it.

Have a safe holidays everyone. Cheers!
