When we last left our traveler she was getting squeezed out of a job she loved and trying to figure out the next step. She decided she should stay in the shoe world in some capacity, so let's do big department store retail. That lasted 2.5 months. Then, let's try an office 9-5 type gig so she can have the weekends free and maybe continue to look for a shoe thing. That lasted 1 month.
And here we are. (I will now stop talking in the 3rd person. That was real weird, huh?) I have figured some things out about myself.
1. I need variety. Lots of it.
2. I love working with people.
3. I have no capacity to sit at a desk for 40 hours a week.
4. The shoe world is where I want to be.
Now that we know these things: what is our fearless food blogger/bus model/shoe enabler/service industry girl to do?
Here is the plan.
Step 1: Secure gigs for the next few months. CHECK.
Step 2: Make sure I have enough security to do something wacky. CHECK.
Step 3: Get on the road.
Step 3 is about to begin. It's going to be a shorter trip than I originally thought, as I am gonna start a new gig in about a week. However, a week on the road, visiting some pals, and eating some good food is going to be healing for my head and my soul.
Alright, 2016. Let's get this party started.
