Tomorrow I will receive my six month “probationary” review at my company.
6 months,
26,000 miles,
14 flights,
6 states,
6 site visits,
4 meetings,
2 countries,
1 lost bag and
6 paychecks (we get paid once a month).
Can you guess which one is my favorite?
Better the bag get lost than the paychecks although I didn’t think that at the time as I was in London wearing the same clothes (hand washed in the sink and dried with a hair dryer) for 48 hours.
I once was at a company for 12 years so six months is a blip when compared. But after three years of searching for an new job, every day, is a cause for celebration.
