so that gig in northern Ontario

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2003.03.17

I've decided to apply for the job with the gov't in the northern reaches of the province. Now I have to write a gov't-style resume and cover letter. According to the outline sent to me by a friend in the Ministry, it'll mean a cover letter that's 3-8 pages long!!

Work is about a daily search for meaning as well as daily bread; for recognition as well as cash; for astonishment rather than torpor; in short for a sort of life, rather than a monday-to-friday sort of dying.
