Every few years I found myself in a new situation. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIn 2006 I left a company in which I had 15 years of experience. I was at the top of my game, making good money in a steady job. But I hated my boss. I took another position which was a gamble. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAfter one year I realized I made a mistake. So I quit my job and put my house up for sale, just as the housing market was imploding in Phoenix. Where would I move? No idea. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eI started a job search in the northwest US, including Alaska. If I sold my house before I got a job, I would move to Reno. I liked the area. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAt the last second I got an offer in Anaktuvuk Pass, Alaska. Never had been to Alaska. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eNext thing I knew, I was driving from Phoenix to Fairbanks. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEven though I knew this position was truly unique and would take patience on my part,  I had had enough after a few months and quit.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eBut once again, another offer presented itself.  This time I would move halfway to Russia on The Aleutian Island chain.  To Dutch Harbor on Unalaska Island. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eCertainly THIS was going to  work out!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"iUniverse, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47155460604144,"sku":"9781450291842","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781450291842_p0.jpg?v=1763840183","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781450291842","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
