Too Many Jobs + City News

My life got a little more complicated today.

I got an email from Adam Challis today with a post for a research assistant position looking into prices of new housing in London. In sounds really cool. It sounds like what I do in my spare time on mls.ca and various developers' website. I'm a huge geek, ok? The job is part time and would be easy to combine with my library job to create full-time work and enough money to live. However, the library job does end on Sept 14.

I went for an interview for a data entry position with the Australian Visa office. He decided I was over-qualified but he offered me another job doing search engine optimisation. Are you familiar with that? I certainly am not, but he seems to think I can pick it up. The job is full time and it will pay the bills. He offered me a 3-month contract. There was a really cool Toronto girl I met who worked there and everyone else seemed pretty young / cool. I told him I wanted to think about it but I'd let him know on Monday. Naturally, finding a planning job will still be my priority. I feel that if nothing comes up by Monday [which I don't see happening], this job will at least solve my financial problems [it would pay a bit more than combining the two part time jobs] and buy some time to continue to look for planning work. I would have to quit my library job if I took this one.

I've exhausted myself stressing over the sitation. I need to calm down. But when I got Chris' email, I was furious:

So, in sad Canadian news, Bell-Globe Media (CTV/The Globe and Mail/Bell
Canada) bought out CHUM (City-TV, Much Music, Star TV, etc.) They have
fired 350 people already and are replacing 6 and 11 news casts with
magazine style programming. More programming changes are to come. I am
SO upset and I thought you would be too. I loved City-TV's news, it wa
the only Toronto-centric news program :( Doesn't CTV control enough of
Canadian programming? It's sad to think that they will most likely give
City-TV some class, as it's trashiness was what I enjoyed most.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT ABOUT CITY TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love, love, love City News. I don't care what any of you MESers have to say about my passion! :) What about Laura DiBattista!? Is she out of work!? I can't believe 350 people got fired. That is tragic. Those poor people...
