A New Chapter

Yes! Another lengthy post, but as you know that happens when I'm excited about something. Hope you enjoy the news as much as I'm enjoying sharing it with you. Life has brought another new 'twist' to my life. Last night was my last night at the hotel but not my last night with the company. I will return to work for them later this spring or early summer. I will be going to work at least part-time in the corporate office in downtown Spokane at the Paulson Building. From there I will get to do what has been a longtime dream of mine: doing on-site hotel front desk training. I put in my notice at the hotel two weeks ago, after much contemplation and prayer. While working out my 2 weeks I had the opportunity to meet with the owners and the former GM (who has promoted to Corporate & is now selling the brand.) I mentioned that I would be interested in doing receptionist work for them but what I really want to do is Front Desk training. Since then, they tell me they've had a few discussions about how that would be of benefit for all of us. The first franchised hotel opened this week in Leavenworth. It will be awhile before they are ready to put me on in the office and maybe 6 months or more before I get to do the traveling I want to do for the company. Doing this for them now puts me in on the ground floor of a new venture that I feel is going to be successful and if not, I can always get back into front desk work. In the meantime, it looks to be a wild ride. I will be able to attempt something that I've thought for a long time I could do with success and I can only thank God that HE has brought this opportunity to me. He is so good!
