Job News!

The past few months for Chuck (and all of the other LGOs) have been full of interviews, phone calls, site visits, meetings and decisions. This is the time of year when (most) everyone decides where they will go and what they will do after graduation. It's a very stressful time, for the LGOs and their SOs.

After several phone calls and interviews with different companies, Chuck formally accepted an offer to be an Operations Manager at:

*drum roll please*

You know.... that company that recently came out with news that they're working on drones as a delivery option in the future? That company where you and probably everyone you know bought most their Christmas gifts? Yeah, you may have heard of them. Oh and before you ask, no he doesn't get free Prime and no, he doesn't get a discount on purchases. I wish.

Chuck is really excited about the position he's accepted. Before LGO, he hardly ever sat at his desk at GE, as he was out traveling to suppliers and out on the factory floor. He loved that part of his job and was looking for something similar after LGO but also for something that would give him the ability to lead a group of people. This job at Amazon will give him both of those things! Congratulations, Chuckie!!!!

And that's not all of the exciting news.

The job with Amazon is in Louisville, KY!!!!! Technically, the job is at the Fulfillment Center in Jeffersonville, Indiana but, we'll be living in Louisville.

So, it's official! Chuck will graduate on June 6th and a few days later, we will be Louisville residents once again. 

This LGO experience has been more amazing than words can even describe (I'll save my sappy, lovefest posts for the program, the people and Boston for a later date...), and we've loved this experience, all the traveling we've done and living in two totally different cities. However, the longer we're away from Louisville, more specifically-the PEOPLE who are IN Louisville, the more we want to go back. In addition to our family and friends, and maybe even a bigger reason we want to go back? We really miss Havana Rumba.

Kidding of course... or am I?

Soon, we fly home for Christmas break for two weeks and when we get back, we have exactly 5 months to soak up as much time with our Boston friends as we can, do all the things in the city we've had on our list but haven't crossed off yet, and prepare to move AGAIN.

The post office is really going to freak out when I submit yet another forward address form. Who changes addresses 6 times and lives in 3 cities in 2 years?! I bet the CIA will be investigating us soon.

CIA, if you're reading this: I promise we are NOT terrorists. Just crazy.
