At the tail end of another weekend

dewlineI'm bracing to restart my job search tomorrow. My once-and-likely-future employers were making noises along the lines of "might be back in August, maybe in October, almost definitely next February". I intend to operate on the assumption that they won't be able to rehire me until they either phone or e-mail otherwise. Only makes sense, right?
Meantime...weather's been going from one extreme of frost warnings last night to the other with 28℃ being the expected high temperature today. This is meteorological whiplash in action to some extent, although Ottawa-Gatineau hasn't been getting it nearly as badly as certain other regions of the planet in recent days.
Some stuff of interest in recent days:
A whole new look at Love Boat-type cruise line operations and the hazards the crew and passengers alike face, courtesy of propublica.org.
The Toronto Star just wrapped up a four-parter on the Precariate, those of us with less-than-stable work lives. (There's a fourth article in the series I can't yet find a link for.)
More later on other stuff...
