Job Hunt Stage 2-ish: Do Your Research

Ok. I found out what careers I would be kind of good at. I've identified the qualities of a job I want:

- New York
- $$$
- Opportunities for working abroad

Did I mention the $$$?

Now, I'm looking around to get a little more specific. I'm trying to find jobs that sound like something I would be interested in pursuing. I'm also trying to find some companies that sound like something I'd like to work for.

The hunt is not going very well and it's not helped by the fact that I'm being really half-assed about it.

Not helping matters is the fact that my current job sucks butt. I'm really sick of it and I'm not getting any happier about it.

I keep thinking that if I can stick it out to July my stock options will be fully vested and I can avoid getting raped on Capital Gains taxes for selling my house. On the other hand I keep thinking, "This job sucks dirty butt."

It'll work out. I'll pull all this crap together and get done what needs to be done, but in the meantime, I'm really not having much fun here.
