When I first left the western galaxies I knew that I could not take certain things with me. The eastern galaxies are a bit different and so are the inhabitants. One would think I was not going to have too many problems adjusting.
Well, I have reached a point where I can honestly admit: I am not meant to work and live in these parts.

Many moons ago I left the one place that has become home to me, just to end up in a distant and different universe. Sadly I have not made any advancements in regards to work. I passed examinations, waited many more moons for a flight test and then found out that no one in the company knew what was going on. Mind you, I had to start calling the office on a daily basis to get following answer: We are sorry, but the government body wants you to start the process again.

WTF? So I started to ring up everyone who has been involved and it has paid off. After much complaining to my own boss, the boss's boss (via a family friend) and telling my boss that I wanted the information yesterday, I got what I demanded.
I have to pass another written examination and then I can do the flight test.
Ain't that just bloody great?! It occurs to them now that I have not completed the requirements?!

Today I played the boss. I know its unimaginable to tell your own boss what needs to be done, but I did, and now I even have an appointment for the exam. It will take place next week. It does not leave me any time to study (nor do I have the books for the subject), but I have reached a point where, in order to speed up the process, I will just wing it.

I think from now on I will harass my boss until this whole ordeal is over and I can finally be out there doing the thing I do best.

Until next time!
