A new beginning to enhance my perception!
Monday, November 3, 2008 at 12:15 PM If you asked me at the beginning of the year what I would be doing in November I would have had no idea.
You see for 5 and 1/2 years I worked as a contractor/consultant to a not-for-profit (NFP) and after feeling brain dead on the subject matter I decided it was time to have a total change. So I gave notice in February and thought...'Ok, I have until September when the contract runs out.' To my surprise, and for the first time in my dealings with them, the NFP acted quickly and had a replacement arranged in March to job share until the end of June.
Panic set in and I thought what have I done. I surprised myself when within answering only three positions vacant notices I secured a contract secretarial support role in Bathurst to see me to the end of December 2008. (There was a little cross-over between the two and a week away on Hamilton Island, but that is another story.)
Then comes August, and now without getting into too many personal details, circumstances changed with my family responsibilities and I found myself declining the offer of a full time role with the business in Bathurst. Instead I tendered my resignation and agreed to work until the end of October to allow the person I was relieving to return from their extended vacation.
Skip forward just a little to today....Today I woke up feeling fresh and ready to commence my new beginning. So what am I doing now you may ask? I am working as a Virtual Assistant/Business Manager for several Professional Speakers and small to medium sized businesses.
