Time Flies
It’s been 4 months in my new position at work as a Digital Media Specialist in Corporate Communications and I feel as though I have been there forever. I almost can’t remember what life was like in another department. I started out working for America West Airlines at the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport and then transferred to the Employee Benefits Department at the Corporate Headquarters (now US Airways) where I worked for past 5 years handling the health insurance, newsletter, benefit fairs and wellness programs. It’s weird to think that I have worked for the airline since I was 23 and now I am in my 30’s.
Before working for US Airways I was a Nurse Assistant for a home health facility and cared for severely handicapped adults- I started there before my senior year in high school and worked there through college. After working there for 6 years and suffering through a broken engagement I decided I needed something new. So I applied to the airline and that is where I have been ever since. What started out as a desire for a change of pace has really turned into a blossoming career. Growing up all I ever wanted to be is a wife and mother, that was my #1 goal (still is) but things just did not work out the way I had planned. I never thought I would be 30 and single so I really did not focus on finishing my bachelor’s degree and plotting out a career path. Not that you cant work and still be a fanatic mother but I wanted nothing more that to be a stay at home mom and focus on raising children and baking. (I really do love to bake). So here goes- this is the story of a single career girl who loves shopping, movies, reading, music, baking- and occasionally gets asked out on a date. This is my life… in the meantime.
