Job Hunting

Aaron was in the kitchen going over some job applications and resumes. He had finished up college about a month ago and had been looking into a bunch of different prospects and had settled on a few different options that seemed like good fits to him.

He’d be lying if he didn’t say he wasn’t nervous about all of this. Job hunting could be such a pain in the ass and making sure that these applications and resumes looked good was equally difficult but he was going to get through this.

	Cait very quietly came into the kitchen to sneak up behind her boyfriend. Tiptoed across to come up behind him. Many years of sneaking up on Corey to get him wet had helped her to move without a sound. She put her hands over his eyes. "Guess who?" she whispered in his ear. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Aaron of course didn't hear anything. He wouldn't have even if he hadn't been as engrossed with stuff as he currently was. It had taken him less than a moment to place whose voice it was talking to him. "Hmm," Aaron says, "It sounds like someone's beautiful girlfriend." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You've played this game before," she said and removed her hands. She kissed his cheek. "What are you up to?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Aaron smiles at Cait. "I'm going over some job applications and resumes before I send them out I want to make sure they are as good as possible before I send them out," Aaron says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Anything looking good?" she said as she took a seat across from him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Hard to say," Aaron says, "The job with the national power grid looks promising and there's a could of R&D firms that look pretty good too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Which one are you leaning toward if any?" Cait asked. "Are they local or would you have to relocate?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2011-06-17 09:21 pm UTC (link)
	"The power grid one is local and a couple of the R&D ones are in the City," Aaron says, "some of the other ones aren't so local." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh," she said. Of course it was to be expected. Aaron was done with college and ready to go out there. Cait still had three more years of college. "Well you need to go where the jobs are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2011-06-17 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah," Aaron says feeling along the same lines as Cait was about it. "The job market is tough right now but at least I should be able to get a good job as an engineer even if it might not be where I want to be." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2011-06-17 10:00 pm UTC (link)
	Cait nodded. "Get your foot in the door somewhere and you can always look for something you really want when the job market turns around." She gave him a smile. "It's not like we can't make this work. We'll just have to adapt." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2011-06-17 10:11 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah a foot in the door and on to better things," Aaron says. "Yeah Lyta and Misha seem to be making things work and that kid who was on the Avengers than when West last I heard was making it work with his girlfriend," Aaron says, "We can definitely make this work if we have too."

	Cait returned twenty five minutes later with different clothes on and her hair up. She stopped to get the keys to one of the school's cars so they didn't have to waste money on a taxi. "Ready?" she asked with a smile when she saw Aaron. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Yep," Aaron said, "Got everything out in the mail and I'm pretty happy with what I sent out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2011-06-21 02:05 am UTC (link)
	"Good. I know you're going to hear back from one of them." Who wouldn't want to hire Aaron? "Where would you like to go for dinner?" she asked as she adjusted her purse strap on her shoulder. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2011-06-21 02:11 am UTC (link)
	"Thanks," Aaron says. He really hoped she was right. "I was thinking something causal like pizza," He says, "unless you have a better idea." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2011-06-21 02:29 am UTC (link)
	"Pizza sounds great," she said. "Any preferences on which pizza place?" Like most places Salem Center had more than one and each person had their favorite place. Ordering for any group activity always took forever and that was just settling on a place let alone settling on toppings. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2011-06-21 07:57 am UTC (link)
	"Let's go to the one you really like," Aaron says not feeling all to picky about where they picked for pizza right now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2011-06-21 11:08 pm UTC (link)
	"Are you sure? I know you like a different one better. I'm fine with going to that one," she said as she hooked an arm around his. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2011-06-22 12:59 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah I'm sure," Aaron says looking over at her, "We can go to that one next time." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2011-06-22 08:17 pm UTC (link)
	Cait almost said if there was a next time, but she didn't and she knew Aaron wouldn't be leaving tomorrow. There was time. "I pick the place to eat and you can pick the movie. Deal?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2011-06-22 08:44 pm UTC (link)
	"Sounds good to me," Aaron says. There were a lot on neat movies out right now. Aaron was definitely going to make sure they got to go out at least once more if he could before leaving and that was if he had to leave which he hoped he wouldn't have too. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2011-06-22 09:56 pm UTC (link)
	She stopped and kissed him. "You'll get a great job and we'll make this work." Even if she had to make quite a few offerings to the gods. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2011-06-22 09:58 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes I will," Aaron says, "And I know we can make this work." He then kisses her back. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
