Part 1... So my jobs pretty much right up in the air at the moment. I always knew that it was a term position and the fact that I've been able to keep it past the agreed end is really just a matter of good fortune. I was supposed to only be supervising here to the end of November, but due to increased numbers, vacations, and the like, I was offered the chance to keep the job for some additional months. Now I'm finding out (partly due to my own stupidity in not thinking this was coming earlier and asking questions) that I'm guaranteed only to the end of January... yup... this month.... (sigh)
So now I'm left with either letting things play out as they may and finding myself unemployed once they find a replacement or going back to overnight shifts at the Delta Barrington to sustain my income after the replacement is in place. UGH!!! God I really don't want to go back to those hours! If I had been paying closer attention, I should have just re-applied for my own job and at least I would have more time to find another one! At least this all comes at a time when I'm already trying to find a new and challenging job to follow, but still! I really don't like being rushed. I wonder if they would still accept my application....? Then again, my boss already knows that if they hired me on it would only be for however long it takes me to find something else. STUPID WORK!... grrr stupid me!
So now I'm going to be polishing up my resume since I have tomorrow and the next day off. I reeeeeeally want to get that job out in Oregon with my sister!! It sounds just like what I'm after. As much as I would really like to get music into the focus of my career, I think the job in Oregon would give me a chance to gain experience with marketing and working in the arts. Oh such fun could be had! And no more bloody visa issues!!! Oh how that would be the life! Alas, being even further away from important persons and everyone here would suck.... At the same time I'm getting ahead of myself and I really shouldn't be doing that... dangerous dangerous talk, that is...
Oh what is a girl to do!?!?!?! On the lighter, less stressed side of things... my friend Dave got a new ferret!!! It was a total surprise when I got to meet him yesterday. soooooo so so cute! He's smaller than his other ferret, Eager (another total cutie), and has more of the classic bandit colouring. They seem to be getting along alright so far, but it has only been 1 day. Dave has given me the task of naming this new "god-son" of mine haha
