Shocked New development, I may live in Frederick, Md for a while

well, I've been staying with my brother in Leesburg for the past week and job hunting, focusing mainly on Richmond. Meanwhile, on one of my "off" days putzing around the historic/downtown of Frederick, Md I read a job opening in the paper, I walked to the temp agency, its a perfect fit for me and pays good, but it'll only last for 3-6months. Some things are developing slowly in Richmond, but now I'm thinking of grabbing this Frederick gig. I always thought Fred was a cool town, but in the past didn't seem to have a lot of job opportunities. I can stay with my brother for a few more weeks while commuting to Fred, and hopefully get some kind of rental there. If I save my money, when the project ends, I can see if anything else is cooking in Fred, or if not head to Richmond.

Good luck in all your job-related endeavors. I know the job market is pretty tough right now, so it is good you found something, tho temporary.

It pays "well." not
It pays "good."

"Pays" is a verb, "Well" is an adverb. Good is a adjective. an adjective does not modify a verb.

When meeting with people always say I am doing "Well." Not I am doing "good." This tidbit will help you in your quest for a job.

Good Luck....
