I took this job to help pay the bills, it was purely and ends to some means. Well yesterday I handed in my resignation, the job has served it&#8217;s purpose. <\/p>\n<p>I have to admit that I went into this job knowing that I probably wouldn&#8217;t be all that happy. Even though I was spending all day with aircraft, it was not going to be easy. Sometimes things just aren&#8217;t as good as they seem to be. Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I loved being at the airport but it just sucked. I toughed it out, the periods of boredom, the non stop pain &#038; torture to the body, the 3am wake ups and the times when I never got to see Heidi because we just weren&#8217;t at home together. <\/p>\n<p>Well that is all over. After almost 2 months of process, I have managed to secure myself a new job, one that I am better qualified for and one that seems almost suited to me directly. I won&#8217;t say much about it publicly for a while yet, but I will still be at the airport, just doing something different yet the same. <\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t wait to get started on this new job.  From the moment I saw the first information on it, ages ago, I knew I wanted in, just didn&#8217;t think it would be possible.  Then I see a job ad with more information and it turns out I am better suited for it than anything else.  Sure I moved over here to the USA to work for one company, I didn&#8217;t expect this journey over to change my life entirely.  To find a passion that I never really had so strongly before, to find the one that I love and now to find a job that is almost like a dream come true.<\/p>\n<p>An extra little thing that this change has allowed me to do is head off overseas for a couple of days.  I have always wanted to fly Lufthansa First Class, but only from Frankfurt.  I want to visit the Lufthansa First Class Terminal and now I can.  I had set it as a goal for 2014, and things happened (Hi Wifey!) that made that goal a little bit harder to get.  I think I also set it for 2013 too.  Well, wait no more, because that is now happening!  In around 11 days time, I will be setting foot inside that famous terminal and enjoying it so very much.  I also get to catch up with a friend while in Frankfurt (for that one little day) and now I can have that little break I have wanted so badly.<\/p>\n<p>Life is never a certain thing and change happens all the time.  Let&#8217;s see where this new adventure takes me!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you know I just started working at a new job, one that I wasn&#8217;t all that happy about.
