Holy Dinah, things change fast!

It turns out that I spoke too soon when talking about giving up my apartment, putting my stuff in storage, and hopping from site to site. I've been on time off all week, but I decided to check my work email just to make sure I wasn't missing anything. It turns out I was missing something. A coworker in the office went on an earlier-than-expected leave, and I'm to immediately take her position. In fact, we won't even have any overlap for me to learn what it is she does. 

Starting tomorrow (Monday), I begin work in the office under the title "Project Coordinator". It's actually a pretty cool opportunity for me since it's a  big step up from my previous clerk position. I have mixed feelings about the whole thing though. You see I left my apartment, put all my stuff in storage, and took Molly on the ferry to Victoria to go live with my Dad. I got the email while in Victoria that I am now to stay in town, and work out of the Burnaby office. 

Pros:

- It's a better position and is probably a good career move

- I get to live in Vancouver = I can play music, train for the half marathon, not freeze my butt off in a northern climate

- I get to have an apartment of my own, and my cat with me

Cons:

- I have to find said apartment of my own, move my stuff again, and move Molly back from the island (poor cat)

- I probably won't make as much money, even if I get a raise. I was working 80 hours a week (tons of overtime), and will now be working 37.5 (no overtime). They'd probably have to triple my wage to match my income.

- I won't get field experience... well not right away anyways. That's probably the biggest kicker. 

Well, I suppose I'll just have to see how it goes. Things change so fast, and they could change again just as easily. Wish me luck tomorrow!
