Work update
Sep. 22nd, 2009 11:00 pmFurther to this: http://mattp.livejournal.com/267143.html
I quit my job today. I don't have a new job lined up. I am going to do something that I have been thinking about for ages - only now do I have the time to do it. I am going to complete training for my pilot's license. I don't wish to fly for a profession; it would be purely recreational. I told people at work this and they were generally supportive.
I have set myself a target of the end of the year. Yes, it was one of my 101 in 1001 tasks, but that kind of fell by the wayside somewhat. I haven't even made the summary post about that. bad matt.
I admit that it's a bit of a risk but I figured that keeping a license current is relatively easy; traing to e of the required standard in the first place is hard enough when I have a job. In a couple of years time I may not have this freedom. So I'm taking a calculated risk for an opportunity which may not present itself again.
Nervous, but excitedly so.
For reasons of professionalism, I protect my work-related posts from anyone with whom I work or have worked. But this one is different enough that I am making it open. I have screened comments though
Hier stell' Ich screiben weil Ich soll etwas essen.
