Exactly a month ago, I contemplated the possibility of leaving FluxCorp in a post titled The End?. I was feeling restless. With my goal of landing a cushy ex-pat job seemingly impossible in this economy, I was willing to consider a change just for the sake of change. The recruiter was just another greasy salesman, telling me all sorts of lies he thinks I want to hear despite acknowledging half way through our converstaion he didn't really know much about what the job entailed beside the piece of paper in front of him. Still, I wondered, is the grass really greener on the other side? I tried to do a bit of due diligence and e-mailed someone I know at the hiring company. "Let's do lunch; it's been a long time." It certainly has, because that fellow has since moved to Toronto. Oh well. I guess it's too soon to say good-bye; after all, FluxCorp, we've only just begun.Finally, a reader!
I thought you'd never come. Please, please, sit down and stay a while. If you're wondering why I started this blog, where I'm from, and what I do, it's all here for you to peruse. Grab a coffee and relax. Your feedback is welcome.
