My cousin-in-law is a successful businessman with his own consulting firm. I don't like to ask for help in the jobs department often so last week it was with a bit of reluctance that I went to him seeing if he had any openings. It turns out he didn't really have any openings per se, but wanted to train me in the things that he does. And now my next couple of weeks are a bit booked.
He had me book a flight to New Jersey for some training. I leave on the 4th of July. I booked that yesterday. Today I just booked another flight from New Jersey to Florida on the 8th. He wants me to go there so we can set up another business opportunity he's working on. Then I fly back to New Jersey on the 11th. I'm in New Jersey until the 15th when I fly back home.
However, I may not be home for too long. It's still possible that if I do a good job, they may want me to go back on the 18th for another week or so. I definitely want to do a good job but all this travel is a bit intimidating.
I don't know if the life of a consultant is the life for me. But at least I get to find out. Wish me luck.
Don't worry, Jeng, I've been there, and after the first back to back trip it'll be a piece of cake. You'll be tired, and it might suck, but it'll go by fast. Good luck!
