My STRAT 669 - Advanced Competitive Analysis - evening class is kind of a struggle, especially at 9:30 on a night when the basketball team has a home game, but I really feel like it's one of those classes that teaches you to think. I like that about b-school: why learn what to do when you can learn how to figure out what to do? Sometimes I wish there were just answers to the problems posed, but by and large I prefer this system.
No real closure on the career front so far this week. I had hoped that things might quickly come together but that hasn't happened; I'm waiting on a pair of phone calls that could arrive at any moment and set things on fire. One could lead to a whirlwind trip to Houston, but I find myself gravitating towards the offer already on the table. I'm not sure why every new development reinforces the status quo. It's a job hunter's paradox.
