Well it only took a month, but I finally got a job! I was pretty much contemplating living in Central Park the day before I got the offer (seriously!). I was going to resort to being homeless because I was so worried that I wouldn’t be able to survive/afford NYC.
I’m glad I have tons of positive friends, because God knows I was about as pessimistic as could be. So what exactly will I be doing? Well I’ll be managing DIRECTV’s social media strategy and programs. This is a brand new position, which means that no matter what I do, I will go down as either “the guy who paved a road of success” or “the guy who set us back to the days of Friendster relevance”.
No pressure, seriously.
AWESOME job landing a great job!!!
I bet you a loving NYC!
Never get bored now BUT OMG wait till the snow flys!!! You’ll be missing San Jose then!!!!
Great to hear from you as your in my thoughts often!!!
Hugzzz and blessings,
Danna
congrats on the gig, roman. being a park bench resident sucks. glad you’re not going to be one of those guys asking me for change while you scratch yourself.
Congratulations on the new job! That’s awesome. Funny coincidence, we met with DIRECTV in New York about ebay.tv, back in the day. I’ve always newly created positions. I think they’re great. Pressure, yes, but also excitement, fewer rules and a lot more respect.
we’re probaby the only one in this country who doesn’t have cable. they cost too much. i actually don’t mind watching pbs.
