(2/2) The company, TransAmerica, looks to be above reproach, at least. My only concern is whether or not the Business Intelligence Analytics training I just finished with TripleTen would go to waste. Now maybe it will make me even more valuable to TransAmerica. That remains to be seen.

(1/2) So things may be looking up for me soon. I went to this networking event this evening where I met this guy who tells me my job searching woes may be over. From what he briefly talked about, this may be a benefits coordinator position. I hope I'm wrong.

(2/2) If you do, it's very hard to get out of it, even within the 3 day window you're given to cancel. I managed to get a moving broker to finally cave in and cancel my contract, but you may not be so lucky. In short, try to avoid moving brokers.

Lesson learned here: if you're looking to move in the next few months, but you don't know exactly where, and then someone calls you out of nowhere giving you a quote that sounds too good to be true, don't sign anything with them. (1/2)

And now the mock technical interview is in the books. One and done, just like the mock HR interview. Now on to the job search. If anyone following me knows a good recruiter, or better yet knows someone who's looking for a Data Analyst or BI Analyst, please let me know.

I just got back from FanX in downtown Salt Lake and wouldn't you know, they had a panel about filk music. Now I was raised partly on filk, especially Leslie Fish. Well until tonight, I was a little worried that filk had gone the way of the dinosaur.

And now my final project has been submitted for approval. If that goes well, and the mock technical interview goes well enough to not need another round, I'll start looking into recruiters.

I'm coming down the home stretch now in my Business Intelligence Analytics course by TripleTen. My mock HR interview went well, and my mock technical interview will be on Monday the 29th. Meanwhile, I have one last project to do to finish the course. After that, it's on to the job search.

"Woke" IS essential to our future.
It's clean energy.
It's belief in science.
It's belief in equality.
It's belief in democracy, and education and love and joy and that there is a future worth living in.

Weird Al Yankovic once said that Tom Lehrer was a major influence of his, and his music even played on the Dr. Demento show for a while, years after their original recordings. Lehrer later said that more recent events left him too frustrated to satirize.

So this past weekend, I heard that musical satirist and mathematician Tom Lehrer had passed away. Here's a cover of one of his songs I did back in the spring: youtu.be/q9N-dLeefAw?...

Quick update: I have now secured a storage unit, a U-Haul truck, some movers, and at least temporary lodging. Now to create accounts on more roommate sites while still juggling all this with my studies.
