Travel plans

I miss my old job. I miss the people. I miss the environment. I miss the money. I got my first paycheck two weeks ago and it's so small, I thought it was funny. I knew I took a huge pay cut when I accepted this job but the severity of it didn't really hit me up until the time I got paid for my two weeks work.

I don't want to sound like I'm complaining and unhappy with my current job. I like my job and the people I work with are awesome. The benefits are top notch in this company. There's lots of room for career advancement, and considering the fact that the job market here is not all that great, I was lucky to have gotten my foot at the door. It's just that shifting from a high tiered position to an entry level one is sometimes hard to swallow. My pride sometimes get the better of me.......

Anyway, my short-term goal is to continue what I'm doing, save some money and go to Rio Las Vegas next year. Mom is planning on coming over again in April/May, so maybe Steve & I can do a short weekend trip to vegas. That'll be cool.

Too bad you didn't have a Civil Service job in Germany; you could have had priority when you transferred to Ann Arbor. There's a number of Specialist jobs in Ann Arbor (OPM.gov), even a Purchasing Agent although this one pays measly.

Good luck!

plain_jane_too: GS jobs are available in Germany, but I don't qualify because of citizenship issues. I'm working on it though (i hope it doesn't take long). Anyway, thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment. I really appreciate it!

Have a nice Sunday!
