I can’t believe it’s been 10 months since I started this goal. It still seems like a far off dream, and I haven’t made any progress. I had another interview with my current employer for a different position within my department. Essentially it would be the same role but there would be the nice little perk of paid business trips to the States. I was unsuccessful with that because I’m not aggressive or pushy enough. Seems like a bad excuse to me but if that’s really how they made the decision then I can live with myself knowing that I didn’t get the job cause I’m too nice!
