Happy Sunday
Hey, remember that roadtrip through the USA I did with tmn1966 last Summer? And how after my flight was cancelled last minute I had to arrange a whole new intinerary and lost a day? And how United Airlines then managed to lose my bag? And how I had to buy replacement clothes and toiletries and everything to still be able to actually do the roadtrip? Remember? Well, when I got back in August, I immediately send them an "interim expenses reimbursement claim" (by fax as United Airlines don't have an e-mail for this and I didn't want to send all my original receipts by snailmail). That was six months ago. In between I contacted them through Twitter to get confirmation on those faxes and in December I managed to find a customerservice mail-account to which I sent them a reminder of my claim.
Two weeks ago (!) I received a mail from customerservices with apologies for the delay in response and a request to confirm that I still had not received a reimbursement so they could investigate what went wrong. I replied immediately and then continued to wait. This weekend, six months and a week after I sent them the form, I finally got my money! Woohoo!
More good news: I'm still doing that 30 Days Shred Challenge and two days ago I managed to actually grab my own foot to do the final stretch exercise for the cool down. I don't think I'll ever be able to do it as instructed with the opposite hand -as demonstrated by Jared below- but when I started I had to first put my leg up on the couch before I could even reach my foot and I can now do it like Jensen:
So go me! *beams*
Last but not least: a little more information about that new job:) I wasn't sure if I could talk about the project in public, but seeing as there is full disclosure on the company's website, I figured it's okay to share:) I will be working for the Cadaster in my town; that's where they keep a register of real estate and property-bounds. Currently they are working in collaboration with 28 other countries on the Multinational Geospatial Co-production Program to collect geographical data of regions all over the world based on recent satelite images.
I will be one of the people who will interprete these pictures and turn them into maps. I will learn how to use a special drawing program; I already got to do a little test run during my interview and I'm just so fascinated by the whole project. I'm also very happy to have a job again, even if for now it's only for a couple of weeks; it will depend on government funding whether the project will continue after that. Even if that doesn't happen, the new experience will be valuable and completely worth the possible limitations on my unemployment benefits.
