First, I've been dreaming that I have been trying to get back to work at McDonald's. I've encountered two of my former CNN colleagues working there. One of them was an editor and the other was one of my former bosses. In the dream, I was in the grill area and I was thinking about working there and trying to find another job, balancing two or more jobs at the same time.
Next, I was dreaming that I was with my father somewhere. In the dream, it seemed like I was at some sort of vacation setting at night. In the dream, I was wondering how he got there again. It was like he came back from the dead and I had to come up with an explanation why things were no longer there and why I was living my life the way I was.
Also, I had a dream where I was moving to Los Angeles to get a job. In the dream, I was staying at an unknown fancy hotel waiting to get settled there. I never learned what the job was in the dream. I stayed 'stuck' at the hotel just waiting to wake up in reality.
Back to reality now, I am wondering if 'I can go home again.' I don't see myself returning to my hometown of Mesa, Arizona to live. I may see myself returning to CNN/Turner Broadcasting for full-time employment. In my past, I never permanently returned to places that I have left. I have visited places like San Marcos, CA, Mesa, AZ, Arizona State University, and the CNN Center in Downtown Atlanta. I have only returned to those places as a visitor.
I really want to stay with The Weather Channel, but I don't see anything opening up that I can realistically do that is being posted. I have to re-apply for some jobs with Turner Broadcasting so that I can support my family and regain some PTO that I sorely miss.
In recent times, I have eaten at McDonald's for some breakfast and some lunch. Having some coupons handy for BoGo or buy something get something else free hasn't hurt me either.
