Post Thanksgiving blahs

Well the leftovers are showing up for lunch today. There are a handful of people here,though not many. The phones are slow, but most people are in a good mood. We have jobs to go to and a wonderful work environment. One where the president of the company knows your name and will stop at you desk just to talk. Of course, everyone is hoping he comes by soon and tells us all to go home.
Yesterday was a quiet day for me, just hung out at home and cooked a nice lunch. Was only a turkey breast and side dishes. Since the cruise leaves on Monday, did not want a bunch of leftovers. Yes it has been a long time coming, and it is finally here. I have always loved travel, but never really thought of working in the field until a few years ago.
I did interview with Piedmont Airlines like 25 yrs ago, but did not get hired. Then I went on to my accounting career which led to my culinary and how here I am in travel. Guess I have come full circle, maybe I should have stuck it out way back then. But then I would have missed out on some wonderful memories and people.
So if you are interested in a career in the travel and hospitality industry, try job.travel. Whether you are fresh out of college, or been in the work force for 25 years, there are career opportunities for everyone.
