| 20:04.20 | resplin | aeryndunham: Did you go by the employment center or look into one of the self reliance groups I told you about? |
| 20:04.51 | aeryndunham | resplin: Oh, I got a job! I start tomorrow! But I still want to look into the self-reliance thing |
| 20:04.52 | resplin | We did a planning meeting to launch that program in our ward yesterday. As I went through the manuals, I thought about how useful it would be for you based on your discussions. |
| 20:04.57 | resplin | Congratulations! |
| 20:05.13 | resplin | What are you doing? Where? Is it a long term thing, or a stepping stone? |
| 20:07.29 | resplin | The new self reliance program is still a good thing to look into. You pick from 4 courses: obtaining education, finding a better job, starting a business, or personal finance. In each course, you work with a group through specific lessons to improve your decision making and help you achieve a specific goal over the six week program. |
| 20:07.42 | resplin | Looking at the manuals, they look really helpful. |

| 20:29.59 | aeryndunham | resplin: It's a stepping stone job, possibly long-term, but fine for now. It's where Chris works, but not the same department, I'll be a project coordinator which isn't really exciting but it pays pretty well |
| 20:32.42 | resplin | aeryndunham: That's great. I'm glad you were able to find something that moves you toward your long term goals. |
| 20:32.49 | resplin | Looking for work is exhausting! |
| 20:33.05 | aeryndunham | And the project I've been put on to coordinate is probably about as IT adjacent as I could get with my current qualifications |
| 20:33.14 | aeryndunham | i'll be working with user testingh |
| 20:33.26 | aeryndunham | I've been not working waaaaay longer than I meant to but i must admit it has been nice |
| 20:33.35 | aeryndunham | I really enjoy cooking and taking care of the apartment |
| 20:33.51 | resplin | That sounds like a good stepping stone. |
| 20:34.15 | resplin | I totally agree about how nice it is to be at home. I was totally made to be a stay-at-home dad, but life just isn't going to permit that. grin |
| 20:35.44 | resplin | I still highly recommend attending one of the self reliance groups. You can join them in your ward, or you can join one at your local employment center. The ones at the employment center are generally non-religious. |

| 20:36.01 | resplin | Here is the link to the manuals to give you an idea of the courses. |
| 21:09.32 | aeryndunham | I will look into it, thanks! |
