RE: Which way to sail?

in #life5 years ago (edited)

You mean which would I choose if I were you?

The England option sounds like the worst of the three because you don't have a job waiting for you there. You could end up anywhere in the country. What good would it be it to you to end up somewhere far from your daughter and your other relatives if you had to be in England? Even if the pay were so much better as to compensate for the cost of relocation and the much higher living expenses, getting the job might take a few weeks of job hunting, which could make the financial advantage of moving to England null and void.

Would you really dislike having to spend 3-4 months in Braga? Or would having to spend all day at the office and the more stressful work be the worst aspect of that? At least you could make better Steem posts while in Braga. You could photograph the city and the surrounding landscape and make posts about the history of the place if that's of any interest to you.

The bar work sounds like something you can always go back to. Is it?

Yes.

Thanks for the comment. You are spot on about the UK, and that's without the weather being considered.

Braga is by the looks of it, a full-time contract. I'm surprised at this as getting rid of duff IT staff is a pain in a lot of companies sides. It would unlikely be worth a short-term move there though, a year mininum really. You are right about having a new location to share. I had a look through Steem's history with regards to Braga and there is very little (2 posts), and it does look like a city that enjoys a camera.

I'm sure I could return to bar work - the least likely to be linked to 'saving for the future', which is the done thing, isn't it?

It sounds like next summer working at the bar is in the cards, then. If that's what it's going to be, I suggest that you double down on your efforts to make money on Steem by producing interesting content.
