So last night, while waiting for my flight at LAX I got a call from Conrad, the president of the company I cooked for recently. Could I meet today to discuss the mat leave thing? Sure. So I go in today meet with him and the CFO and yep, I'm working there as of Monday - doing some IR (investor relations), some PowerPoint, some web design and updates, and who knows what else. During the discussion, it turns out that the CFO knows me from two previous companies and feels easier. Then the Chief Geo comes in and offers me a cooking job in the Eastern Arctic - 6 - 8 weeks, starting July or so - yay. All for the same company, of course. Pelly Bay is where it is. Whoo hoo! Looks like we'll have another thread about cooking, but this time, believe me, it won't be about snow, it'll be about bugs, dammit!
But I'm so excited
The CFO isn't impressed that I'll be away but Conrad said 'No, I told her she could leave for a cooking job if she wanted" (that was my one conditions) so basically, I set my salary, hours, and conditions - could it get any better than this?
I don't know, but I don't think so!
Anyway, I'm back to work and I'm glad to be occupied again. And happy to go back to the Arctic.
I'm so lucky.
