Do you speak Dutch and Chinese?

they speak English . . . the Chinese manufacture the windmills to Dutch specs and the Chinese are the ones "in-charge" of maintenance, but, the Dutch want locals to handle the maintenance with the "1" Chinese engineer  . . .

the lady on the phone mentioned that face to face interviews would start on the 20th . . .

Cool...

How are you with heights, or would this be a supervisor position?

at this time, I have no idea . . . depends on:
1. Pass interview with both Dutch and Chinese guys
2. Pass training
3. Pass practical apprenticeship "in -situ" for tow weeks paid in full as a month

The girl on the phone was very detailed and did answered to my questions, although, I did ask why call so early in the morning[0600h], she said, "we like to test the readiness of the participants"

So....

how are you with heights?

I'd send them a bill for waking me up...to test how well they did at paying. ;)

Good morning  [coffee]

Gun shots and a Panamanian wind farm.  Sounds like the beginnings of an interesting day.

Rain here and some snow around the area.  [coffee] [coffee]  No gun shots in my local vicinity, but I am sure there were some somewhere in Seattle.

Back to the regular schedule. No classes today so I hit the alarm  [laugh]   [bang]

So much for getting back in the grove. Can't do that tomorrow. Classes all the rest of the week.

During Z's school vacation I was able to sleep until it was light.

Felt like the middle of the night when I got up today.

0430 seems so early and it so dark out then. I could maybe sleep in till 0500. I need to leave the house at 0630. Lucy walks for about a half hour right before that. I need time to visit here and a couple of other places on the internet, drink coffee, play with the dog for about 10 minutes (first thing  :P ), shower and get ready - pack the lunch, get the rest of the coffee in the thermos, eat some breakfast....  0430 it is  [laugh]

Dogs walked, warm rain this morning.

Blissful vacation is over, time to grind out another year. [thumbsup]
