(I hesitate to post to this, only because I fear getting inundated with recruiters seeking only to satisfy companies needing to fill positions at openings, rather than paying any attention to my skillset and goals, but I'll say it anyway.)

What I want for Christmas is to be re-employed. (Or at least after New Years, since I now think it highly unlikely that I'll get any job offer between now and January 1st.) I and others were downsized from the organization where we worked. some months ago due to budget cuts. I'm tired of being unemployed and just want to work at a job I enjoy, doing what I'm good at, helping to further the company or organization I worked for, to accomplish their goals and targets.
