Here is where I am right now

I am now at my final destination. The place in which I shall live for at least 3/4 of a year. I am again in the place of job searching. This is something I do not love, it is a thing that I wish were done and over with before I have even started. It seems every time I look for a job a nasty dilemma comes over me. Each time is different than the last but always difficult.

I last went on the job hunt in Calgary. There my struggle was "What kind of a salon do I wish to work in, to get my apprenticeship completed". While there I was hired in four different locations, I did three modle cuts, and was given the run down of two of the salons. This was all before I finaly took the job at Essentials. My job was great and in the end it was worth all that pain and questioning. It was hard to keep saying no to what seemed like great job opportunities. And each time, I would say no to one before I knew there was another one to go to.

Now my problem is new and again unexpected. How it goes is this, I am unsure as to how long I will actually be in this city. Fine, I don't mind being unsure about lengths of stay in one place to the next. What I do mind is the thought of working at a salon and having them unsure as to the length of time I will be there. It is one thing to leave a job and the boss in the end, they get over it. Yet the thought of them investing so much time and energy into me and then I just walk out in a year and a bit. Gross! Not only that, I would build up a clientelle or at least start to. Then wham I spend two months out of a year telling them I am leaving.

As much as I may like doing hair I do not like just starting it and then taking off from my work place. I am a bit frustrated at times for I had thought how great hair would be for travel. Easy to get a job cause everyone likes to get their hair cut. It's something needed around the world. And at the time I had thought it would be easy to start and stop at any given time. NOPE, I was wrong.
