More often than not, Catch-22s present themselves in the strangest of ways. Last night, sitting in an fancy Japanese restaurant with a bunch of people (all employed except me and 2 children), I was offered a job in between mouthfuls of sushi and edamame beans. They want me to go be a design tutor at the college (now a university) I used to study in. A few days a week at a good hourly rate, with almost free reign to boss naive students around however I please. On top of that, site visits to exotic places like Bali will be included, flights and accommodation paid for.
The cons? I have to relocate to Malaysia and probably move back in with my parents. Endure the freaky traffic and humid weather. Risk being bored out of my mind on non-working days.
The other option, go back to Sydney, struggle to find work and accommodation. Maybe go on the dole if all else fails. But also a chance to start up my own thing and if successful, live happily ever after in the place I now know as home. I really like Sydney. Which would you choose?
