Well, here I post again, after a long while of well...not posting....Work is about the same, busy...and last week was really busy for me..especially wednesday/thursday. I got up on Wednesday morning around 9am, and was all set to relax before needing to go to work at 2pm...however things changed. Since I helped a friend of mine move the night before, I had one of my company cargovans. I got a call around noonish that another location needed that, so I was asked to take it to that branch. So I did. And when I was waiting around at that branch to get a ride back to my office, my phone rang...it was the corprate manager. He asked me if I could go to Calgary that afternoon. I said sure, as long as my shifts were covered that afternoon and the day after. I left Vancouver around 4pm wednesday, and drove straight to Calgary getting there around 5am our time which was 6am alberta time. I waited around until 7am when the guy from alberta showed up. I ended up missing my flight at 745am due to having to find the airport and getting there at 730am. So, I ended up catching the 9am flight which put me back in Vancouver around 940am. I went to my airport location, they drove me to another branch to get a car, so I could drive back to my office to get my car and go home....however, when I got there, my shift wasnt covered, so I ended up working until 6pm. I got home at 630pm, fell asleep at 7 and slept straight through till 9am friday morning. Talk about a long shift....and now my head office is mad because I totally worked more hours than allowed by labour relations, and are forcing me to take 2 days off next week. All because of having to pay out 18 hours of double-time pay. Oh well. At least the trip was fun. The flight home was cool, flying over the Rocky Mountains. It was so beautiful. And the view over the lower mainland was awesome. I wish I have been able to take pictures with my phone but the FCC rules prohibit phones from being used on the airplanes. Oh well. Anyways, this is it for now, another post will come soon.
