I feel like God is using events around me to push me. Unfortunately, some of these events are bad for other people and I feel bad for them.
Recently, I found out that they are getting rid of my boss (or letting his appointment expire without renewal) at my side job. They've already hired a new person already (or that's what I've heard). The whole department pulled together and everybody signed a petition to try to change the minds of the higher-ups and keep my boss around. I am sensing something going on behind the scene. The Dean (who has been the boss of my bosses at the center) is also leaving her position. A fairly new body CUE (CUNY Undergraduate Education) is now in charge of the Center.
Since this is a side job to me, it may not be a big deal. But when I was looking up what happened with my boss, I came across 9 positions opening up in another program (which is a joined effort program across several CUNY campuses including mine) and these positions really fit me. I believe I have a good chance of getting one of them, if I apply.
However, I don't really want those positions because they are full-time positions and I would have to get off "the less traveled road" if I am to take one of these positions. But these open positions can use everything I've been working on (on my own on the less traveled road) and that's a pro. A con would be working full-time for CUNY because there's so many things wrong here (and I mean moronically and ridiculously wrong).
As I am working on some New Media stuff (on the less traveled road), I am going to put my resume together and apply for one of the 9 positions. But I haven't decided if I really want to take the job if or when they hire me. If they don't, then that's one less decision to make. But it seems like God is pointing me to one of these positions (possibly for other reasons I don't know.)
I am not going to spend too much time with revising my resume and applying for these positions, since I am not even sure I want them. I'll just let God carry me on this one.
My key focus is still the two big hairy projects I've been working on, which will serve A LOT of people and provide me the freedom I've been working toward.
