I still subscribe to that notion – but now necessity dictates that I need a small moving truck – no longer my first little Saturn.

And as I surfed the Recruiting.com site to see what comments were happening and what content was scrolling through the feed, the dreaded 404 error message showed up.

“Hmph,” I thought. “What’s that?” So I back clicked and refreshed. It cleared up and I kept reading and comparing and the error happened again. I looked again at my stats and the interest in the post that was *supposed* to have gone on Nobscot two weeks ago about exit interviews, retention, and abusive bosses. “Probably a traffic blitz that the servers can’t handle,” I thought and picked up the phone to notify someone at Recruiting.com because, obviously, if the server’s down, so is the email.

Life goes on, and work, and more pressing things to do. Is my attitude cavalier? Not at all. I’ve just had too many business email accounts and websites ripped apart and deleted than I care to even attempt to remember, and too many things I’ve strived to earn and achieve left behind for others to consume. It just hardens the survival attitude and spurs one to keep moving. And the less you carry, the more agile, the faster the pace.

Recruiting.com was down for a little while. But the lights weren’t turned off and the building wasn’t removed. See? Those are Recruiting.com lights over there with your name in them.
