quiet_elegance got a call today: he starts tomorrow at the hospital in Waltham. For those not yet used to the system, yeah, it's that fast. I'm glad I'm home this week to help make the kid-care transition, considering how much he's been The Guy. Also, no idea what type of work, what the project is, how long it'll last- sometimes the hours are spotty, sometimes it's balls-to-the-wall: either way a PITA, but WORK. It's been 2 months this time.

Also, he got a call yesterday re: Vegas/training. He goes back for only one week this time in -- huh- another 2 months from now. I'll be curious to see if they maintain the every 4 months schedule at this rate.

Teaching is likely to kick in again: they go by calendar year, so almost nothing in December, so safe bet OSHA or history will come around very soon. Then there's the notion of teaching cabinet-making in Boston, as their old guy was an idjit, said dumb stuff, and got shit-canned. There's been words said about them being interested in QE doing ... stuff, but it's all pie in the sky til they schedule him, IMO.

My estimate is that within 2-3 weeks, he'll be so busy he'll be wistful for this down time he's had. It's damn hard, but I really do feel he'll be full time instructor within three years. Dammit.
