HOW QUICKLY THINGS CHANGE
Well, I thought I had a week left at the Citizen. As it turns out, I've got only two days left of working there. PG This Week is getting a new sports reporter, and today the managing editor of the Prince George Citizen, Dave Paulson, told me the new sports reporter can't start next week, and the current one is leaving after this week. So Dave told Christine, the editor of PG This Week, that I would cover sports for a week, which should be okay. Either way I'm leaving town in a week.
I'm disappointed about leaving the Citizen because:
A. I prefer daily deadlines over weekly deadlines.
B. I'm taking a slight pay-cut to work there.
C. There is no TV in PG This Week to watch Euro Cup during the day.
Oh well, can't win 'em all I guess. I'm covering sports so I'm happy about that, and I'll still be getting paid two more times from the Citizen after I start at PG This Week. And I'll be drinking solid for three days straight beginning Canada Day in Kamloops.
Note: I won't be taking my car down to Vernon just so everybody knows. I'm traveling with my family and getting dropped off in Kamloops to save money and get drunk. Then, if I have to, I'll take a Greyhound on July 2 (Meghan's and my sister's birthday) from Kamloops to Vernon.
