BRRRRING!

without comments

It’s 2:30 a.m. Why is the phone ringing?

Right. It’s because that’s when Europe is in business.

Josh has been busy. He estimates he has applied for about 40 jobs since we got serious about leaving Vancouver in December. He’s had a few phone interviews, some promising but the one at 2:30 a.m. was what he called “embarrassing”.

After scheduling the interview for 11:30 a.m. her time, one German HR representative asked Josh to speak German, at 2:30 a.m. our time. Needless to say, it did not go well.

Oh, and our wedding is one month away.
