No, its not perfect. It doesn't fill my criteria for a position that challenges me. Nor is it long term...but it will help cover my medical expenses while I look for a career that does fit the bill.
I start driving Limo again tomorrow.
This will be my 4th season driving limo and its a love/hate relationship. I love the people I meet and the parties I get to attend during Sundance, swag bags (full of expensive gifts), free food and ski passes. The "hate" comes with all the waiting and waiting... you rush to the airport just to sit and wait for 2-3 hours (note- wait time is not paid time). It's a game the dispatcher plays telling you the wrong time to make sure your there early... but then you have to guess how much time they buffered for you and go "late" but before the plane arrives. Meaning if they just told you the right time or flight number you could always be on time and not waste hours at the airport.
Pros- full time work for 2-3 months. Paychecks. Leads for other careers through networking. The most beautiful view... being above the inversion.
Cons- hours are crazy.. its hard to have a social life. May negatively impact my health issue. Having to buy all new clothing because I gave all mine away when they didn't fit (now they would).
So now I'm planning a trip in late February early March to Disneyland. This will be the second time that my older sister and I have taken our "little girls" (AKA little sisters). They're getting to an age that they might not want to hang out with their waaaaaaaaay older sisters for too much longer.
Congratulations! Now, listen to your body and let's hope you don't get worn down.
