Dh has just graduated. Last month actually. He was the top graduate, has impeccable references, and solid co-op experience. I have no reservations with his abilities to do the job well, or interview well. 2 professors have called since he graduated asking him to forward his resume for two different unadvertised positions. He did, we just haven't heard anything yet.
The college also asked him to come back next year to teach a specific module, and he was asked to present a study he did at 2 different organizations for meetings. We're in a good place as far as his skills and abilities.
However.. (here's the mojo part 
). We need him to work. And waiting is not my strong suit. It's got to the point where the phone rings and we jump out of our chairs.
So if you have a tiny bit of mojo to spare that he starts getting calls that would be awesome. We are willing to do what it takes, and move or look at long commutes.. just waiting for a shot to prove it. 
Go softly my sweet friend. You will always be a part of who I am.

No one changes unless they want to. Not if you beg them. Not if you shame them. Not if you use reason, emotion, or tough love. There is only one thing that makes someone change: their own realization that they need to.

My daughter did a Skype interview last year. She lived in British Columbia, job was in Newfoundland. She got the job. About three weeks later she sold her furniture, shipped her car, and was on a plane across country to start.
I guess Skype interviews are not unusual in this world...saves the employer a ton of $.
Wishing you mojo. Maybe a family move will happen. I've moved to Bermuda, The Yukon, then Niagara (hometown Toronto)....and it's been an adventure.

DS, you are forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spirit with me. I will always try to live by the example you have set. I love you and miss you every day and am sorry you had to go so soon, it just doesn't seem fair.
