Nataly 38 #1 July 8, 2011 Wow... Just emailed the RCMP 'cause I need a criminal check for my role in Ghana... The lady who answered my query is the mom of an old friend from school!! Cool Another strange thing... Got a call a couple of days ago about a job in Monaco... Never would have believed that my time fixing helicopters would somehow serve me in accounting... But there you go: this company buys and sells helicopters and they are just delighted that I'm not a "normal" accountant!! Went for an interview this morning and it's like that job was designed for *me*!! They know I have this role in Ghana coming up and they still want to hire me As if today wasn't weird enough, I just got an email from an old work colleague - she will be going to Ghana (in the same city even!) when I will be there. Soooo freaky! Just CANNOT believe how connected everything is!!!

Nataly 38 #3 July 8, 2011 Quote Outstanding!!! Sounds to me you have made the right decision and things are falling into place quite nicely! Yeah... It's funny how quitting everything and coming over here seemed like such a crazy thing to do in the middle of an economic chrisis... But in my heart I knew if I didn't try, I'd always wonder "what if"... Honestly, it's been tough over the past several months as all my savings disappeared, but I wouldn't change it for anything in the world "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For real, I do love the south of France. Perhaps I should use my French citizenship for once and try to get a job there.

Nope but! 1) You get free cable. 2) Who knows maybe she will meet a nice rich dude? It's times like this that i kick myself for having bought my condo for me and the X wife and did not liquidate it when she asked for a divorce. Live and learn I guess.

Nataly 38 #14 July 8, 2011 Quote Monaco sounds more enticing than Ghana lol. Meh... Moved to Nice (very close to Monaco) in December... All that tacky bling-bling gets old after a while Call me crazy but I don't think a fancy car makes a guy any more "manly"... Actually, I think it makes him look like a bit of a numpty!

If it's a small world in terms of bumping into people you *like*, you better be careful about making too many enemies because they too could be around every corner!!
