oh, before i forget...

this was just too funny. i won't rehash why i left the ship. it's all here if you want to scroll back through.

so you can imagine my surprise yesterday when i got a call from an 'unknown' number. i always answer - unless i'm having a mathew day or moment, which can happen at any time.

the male voice on the other end announces his name - i don't remember it - and that he is calling from norwegian cruise lines in miami about my resume i submitted for a cruise staff position.

they'd like to offer me the position, he said.

ummm... are you not aware that i'm not on the ship, i asked.

you're on vacation, right?, he responded.

no. (not unless you count it as forever.)

o.k., bye, he said. and just that quickly. interesting, huh?

remember, you quit them, they didn't quit you. You are still quite valuable, you just didn't make enough to endanger your mental health and you refused to relinquish your conscience. Funny story though.
