back to work
After about a 10 day break we’re back to work with an almost continuous 2 week full schedule. The days off were nice but when the aircraft is available for charter there’s always a cloud looming over you waiting to crash down with a pop up or short notice trip. I somehow avoided two pop ups over the 10 days but that doesn’t make up for the 2 hour notice trip that came in the middle of dinner time a few weeks ago. I think I’ll write more about pop ups and the destructive nature of a charter pilots schedule later.
So now I’m in British Columbia after dropping off a bunch of triathletes, bikes, gear, and gatorade for the Canadian Ironman. It was a pretty place to fly in to but unfortunately the Super 8 motel were staying in looks like any other Super 8, and that isn’t saying much. So I’m trying to enjoy a little nice weather on the deck while looking for a new line of work on the computer. I saw a job for a armed personal security guard for some CEO’s, that couldn’t be so bad, could it?????
