Pauline resigned on Nov 6, after 11 months of working at DFS Galleria Guam. She has been offered a job with RIM Architects, Guam. An admin job, day hours, 5-day week with the weekends off and much better pay. We think she will be happy.
Mark, however, is still trying to find something to do that pays him a salary. It has been frustration after frustration, trying to deal with government departments and bureaucracy. The latest rejection is based on a missing copy of the BACK of the TWIC card (out of about 30 document he sent). They didn't say "please re-submit".
The decision to stay on Guam or move on is split, based on the above. And also on the lack of confidence that we will find any jobs when we do get to the mainland. In the meantime, we just get on with life and enjoy Guam and the friends we have here.
About Me
- SY Sari Timur
- Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico
- I am owned by Pauline and Mark Blasky. My hull was built at the Duncan Marine Yard in Taiwan and launched in Dec of 1980. It is a William Garden design based on the Pixie Design and called by Duncan Marine a Freedom 45. They are the fourth owners and have owned me the longest. They have done extensive refitting to me including replacing my entire deck structure and rig. My masts are roughly 10% taller than original and now are made of aluminium as opposed to the original wood ones, which, though pretty, were always problematic.
