Not sure how much people care but this blog is a good outlet for me to express my feelings in ways that I would otherwise avoid. I just felt that I would share my thoughts now that the time for leaving is coming closer and closer. To be honest I'm getting a little scared and very stressed.
I'm being temporarily relocated to Savannah, TN for the next few weeks for training and then I'll be flown to Oregon for flight training following that. I don't know what to expect from training and right now there is a lot up in the air on the home front.
My new roommate isn't moving in until the beginning of April, I have a wedding mid-April that I don't know if I can make, I had a vacation planned that I need to cancel and I'm in a wedding in July that I'm not entirely sure I'll make since I have no idea where I'll be then. There's still a laundry list of things that need to be completed at home this week and I'm making every effort to get as much done in my current job as possible.
Although I was warned that things would be very dynamic with this new career path, I'm still a little shocked by all the things up in the air. I don't really know how long I'll be in Tennessee for, I don't know how long I'll be in Oregon for and I don't know where I'm going yet. For that matter, I also don't know if I'll be on a boat or on land. I know that I'm going down this weekend and living in a corporate apartment.
I just get stressed when I don't feel like I have control of the situation. Another reason to take this job was to learn how to not be in control and I'm certainly learning... This was more about evolving as a person and learning life lessons than gaining tangible career skills. So, since stress management was something I needed to work on, now is the opportune time to get better at it.
Flight training? What kind of job did you take? Sounds like something that could be a lot of fun for a bachelor like yourself.
