So I realize that 2020 has gotten away from me... almost entirely, except for that little post back in April. Which doesn't feel that long ago. It's scary how fast time flies. Even during the current pandemic. Although it has not affected us as much as I'm sure it has others around the world. The worst it has done for me is caused me to lose my position at Delta Dental, that I started in November of last year. It happened twice, first in March when it was announced that the full-time workers were being told to work remotely. Us temps were told that we weren't allowed to do that, so we would just get a mandatory unpaid vacation until resuming on April 7. Obviously that didn't happen, so they ended up begging us to come back, this time saying we could work remotely, which lasted about 2 weeks before they eventually let us go with (what I think was) some bogus reason that temps were not in their budget. What sucks is that the job was opening up for a permanent position too, if the virus hadn't hit. Honestly though, they did me a favor, seeing as the communication between management was majorly lacking. And I didn't want the stress of dealing with that, day after day anyway.
It also opened up a new opportunity for me to actually work remotely for another company, with much better communication, which is what I've been doing since late April. And I am no stranger to working from home, so I have really enjoyed being able to do that again.
Anyway, I've also been trying to get back into foruming, via sorting through and fixing links on my forum. [ Shameless plug time >> CYN! ] It's difficult though, seeing as I have nearly 17 years worth of posts to sift through. Haha. It also gets me back into spending time in Photoshop again, kinda. I feel like I've lost sight of my skill in graphic designing since I returned to working out of the house. Even now that I'm working from home, I feel like I never have any time.
I'm going to stop there, before this gets too long. Just wanted to post a quick update. I'm planning to try to write in here more often! 😊 Feel free to leave me a comment with what you've been up to, if you want, whoever happens to stumble across my blog!
