Jobs

Oi, what an update this morning, I suppose. First with the bad... Ace's re-enlistment package somehow expired, which means his extension has apparently ended, and his pay has now stopped. He has people trying to pull for him, getting him his pay, but apparently on the table right now is Active Reserve instead of Active Duty. The issue? Trying to decide what to do and/or where to go for the four year gig, in one day.

I know he works well under pressure in the field, on the job, with his boys and whatnot... and although this is a rather different environment to be as decisive, I'm sure he'll make a sound and educated choice. Or at least one that will make him happy. So... it's a waiting game I suppose. He'll eventually find out when and where his schooling/training is, and then things will settle down again.

The good through all of this... I received another email this morning about my job offer from October/November of last year. Training would start 01 February, if I can make it to that class, instead of the end of February as had been discussed previously. And seeing as Ace no longer has a paycheck, and I've been laid off for a month now, it seems that this sudden and unexpected time table works to my advantage.

Although my apartment lease is up at the end of February, I think I can round up everything to get moved before then, and/or on weekends to finish up whatever hasn't been done yet.

The next month will be interesting indeed I think, for the both of us.
