Mrs. Galster Don't worry...I'm still getting used to it too On March 30th Andrew and I permanently and legally became best friends. And the last 2 1/2 weeks have been just as wonderful as the 9 months preceding it. Now, we are calling you to prayer. Andrew and I will be travelling to PEI this upcoming weekend to meet with a possible job opportunity. The last several months have been agonizing as we pray, wait and hope that someone will hire Andrew on as a pilot. Entry-level jobs are horrifically hard to get as there is a catch-20. Most commercial pilots finish their training with around 250 hours, but very few companies will hire pilots with under 500 hours. Pilots can only get those hours through being hired as it would cost over $50,000 to pay for those missing hours out of pocket. Thus, every entry-level pilot is vying for those few and precious positions. As per our usual, we were/are willing and eager to move anywhere in Canada that was willing to offer us a position. For a while we believed that would be in BC as there was a lead there, but this did not pan out. Therefore it is exhausting to switch our thinking to the complete opposite coast and constantly be stuck in 'transition mode'. We are willing to go wherever God wants us. Please pray that there will be absolutely no doubt in our minds if this is the place we are supposed to go. Therefore, we have literally spanned the country (from sea to sea) looking for jobs. But- from Pacific to Atlantic, God is God. |
