"Even though I'm not working much, this is what I want to do." "This" means disaster work with the Red Cross.<BR/><BR/>And you're right, I can't work for a chapter when I work for National. But this job in Austin is not with the Red Cross. So if I decided to take it, I'd have to resign from the Red Cross and go back to being a volunteer with them.<BR/><BR/>However the Red Cross job in Raleigh IS with National, so that wouldn't be a problem. The only problem with that one, is that I don't think I'm quite qualified for it. We'll have to see....Jerilyn Dufresne, authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02720391625949782016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7322841.post-1168223480328898632007-01-07T20:31:00.000-06:002007-01-07T20:31:00.000-06:00I used "forced" because, although I'm employed by ...I used "forced" because, although I'm employed by the Red Cross, I'm not working because there aren't any disasters. Does that make sense? Your note kind of sounds as if I'm unemployed. :)Jerilyn Dufresne, authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02720391625949782016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7322841.post-1168213020057827102007-01-07T17:37:00.000-06:002007-01-07T17:37:00.000-06:00I just HAVE to point out a few things here that ma...I just HAVE to point out a few things here that made me laugh...<BR/><BR/>"force vacation" seems to imply you were fired from your old job, not quit. (forced doesn't seem to be a word to use when it was a choice)<BR/><BR/>Then there is this line---"Even though I'm not working much, this is what I want to do." well, really who doesn't think that is what they might WANT to do? (not working much, that is?) <BR/><BR/>Good luck with the interview tomorrow though. When I emailed you about the RC openings here you emailed me that you can NOT work for a local RC chapter if you are employed by the Federal...so does this mean you won't be doing Federal Distaster work?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
