As some of you may have known, but for those that didn't, I really didn't care for my current job at the Aqua Marina Hotel (if you come to Waikiki do not stay here). I had applied at nearly every hotel in the area and even explored a couple other options such as security firms and offices. I was getting rather discouraged because I wasn't getting any call backs. A friend of mine told me not to worry, that hotels especialy are notorious for dragging their feet and that job offers tend to be feast or famine. Well, it turns out he was right.
In the past week I've received an offer from a security firm and a hotel. I've decided to go with the hotel. I'll be a Guest Service Agent at The Sheraton Princess Kaiulani(pretty much what I was doing at the Silver Cloud). It's a union property so it means a decent pay hike and a much better environment. I start on the first of November. Cass can't wait until I'm no longer working graveyard. She doesn't like me when I'm cranky.

Hi Ben, glad to hear that you've found a new job. What Union are you in and is it an off shoot of the National Services Union? The only reason I ask is I'm studying employment law right now, and I'm rather enjoying the material on the NLRA (National Labor Relations Act) and collective voice. In any event best of luck and my cat can still drink harder than you.
ben...no one likes you when you're cranky :p
glad to see you left the pit and are moving up in the world
