They Call It Hurricane Sandy. October 28, 2012.



 

Where I live: the south shore of Long Island. Pondering Hurricane Sandy and the media hysteria.  To evacuate, or not to evacuate? Too soon to tell whether the chattering heads are on the money or not, and in the meantime, I'm getting ready for my first day as an "Associate" at an upscale housewares store at the local mall. Haven't worked holiday retail since a stint at Toys R Us in 1977.  Despite the fact that myriad submissions of resumes, cover letters, writing samples, and multi-page on-line applications to government, corporate, and non-profit entities have yielded no responses whatsoever in the almost two years since I've graduated, my motto remains "Onward and Upward!"
