Employment 101
If there is one thing that I have learned in the past few weeks of job hunting its this: Just when you think you have a grasp on the lay of the land, it shifts without warning.
On Tuesday morning, I was informed that they had managed to get my Red Cross contract extended until the end of April, so that means I will be able to delay running off to Kannanskis as a desperation move.
On Friday I had a 1:00pm second interview with Vantis in Downtown Calgary and a 4:00pm interview with the Capri Centre in Red Deer. Unfortunately I had to drive there and back in the same day because I had a very important Purgatory game at 7:00pm. Thankfully Tim cam with me as navigator to keep me awake. Now the good thing is that both interviews went quite well, and I am fairly certain at least Vantis will make me an offer.
The broadside was the call from my former boss and mentor, the GM of the Executive Resort at Kannanskis. Apparently his right hand, Yves is likley to take a GM position with the same company's hotel in Regina and if that happened he would hire me as Rooms Division Manager on the spot... hmm... that would mean I would make almost twice what I'm making at the Red Cross and I would be able to take the occasional weekened off to be with friends in Edmonton... it's not a hard choice.
Apparently I'll have answers for this all by the middle/end of next week.
