1, 2, 3, 4, 5Peaks

I am unbelievably fortunate to work where I do. They are an amazing group of people and it is such a relaxed environment around the office.

As part of what we sell we get to work with so many great events and one of them is the 5Peaks challenge. These challenges take place all over Canada from BC to Quebec.

A couple of weekends ago I was setting up the BUFF® tent at Canmore Nordic Centre where I got to meet some crazily fit and enthusiastic people. It is definitely true what they say, people who exercise are unquestionably happier than most.

Anyway, I took some pretty pictures of the event and had a wonderful morning. Maybe next time I will join in with the race (avec bear spray!)

The Job Hunt

Lewis was working and I was setting up our apartment. Kind of. I arranged for the cable and internet to be installed as well as setting up our electricity payments. What more does one need to do?! Ah yes, get a job.

There were quite a lot of jobs available, however without meaning to sound obnoxious, I really didn’t want to work in a shop. I knew I wanted something with diminished responsibility even for a little while but I think on some level I also knew that was never going to happen. I am a planner and I like to have control of organising anything and everything. Shocking I know.

And so the search continued until the day I had arranged for one of my apartment planning tasks to be set up. Then serendipity played a part in my life.

My delightful Telus installer, Jim, saw my C.V lying on the kitchen counter and explained that the company his wife works for is looking for someone with my skill set. Two interviews later I have been offered the job.
