In which the middle-aged Peacenik mouths off about War Drones--and all the other things that make him cranky.

Mr Mahatma--who is a Mr in real life--lives in the valleys of Southern California with his wife, a herd of Dears, and an impressive collection of books. Pnorny!

Papa Needs A Brand New Job
On the commute home I realized that Ihave to start my job search again. Mind you, the current job is terrific and the people are great. It's simply the long commute and facing that the time away from home will get longer once school is out. Two things happen in three weeks: my kids graduate and they start camp. Since I'm now the morning kid schlepper, the task of taking them to camp falls to me. The camp's nearby but out of way enough that I'll be getting to work about 1/2 later, which translates into staying at work even later and getting home later. In all, less family time.

Once summer ends and school starts, I'll have one in Middle School and two in Elementary. That translates to, again, getting to work late, staying late, and coming home late. In all, less family time.

I'll admit I like time away from the family but only when it's voluntary, like when I'm on a trip with my friends. I don't like wasting 15 hours per week in commuting topped off with forty hours of work.

I could work part-time but as a Mid-level Professional it is near career suicide to work part-time. I could work from home but I'd still have the horrible commute the other days.

And so I need a new job, something much closer to home. Any one need a data jockey?
