| still figuring out the job situation... |
[Apr. 18th, 2007|12:43 pm] |
So I just had an interview with Crytek. They are based out of Frankfurt, Germany and are looking for a tools developer to do support on their new engine. Should I choose to take the job, I would be flying out there within the next month to scope the place out. The interviewer basically said unless there was an unexpected surprise during my on-site visit, I pretty much had the job.
Do I actually want to move to Germany? I've always told myself I would love to live abroad... it'd be so much fun, so nice to get out of the states, etc... But there's a difference between enjoying visiting somewhere and actually living there. Should I just say fuck it, go, and not look back? I don't even know German! Gah!
The other thing to consider about the job is that it involves travelling around the world roughly 10-12 weeks a year. So about once a month, I'd have to hop on a plane, go somewhere and crash in hotels or whatever. It sounds nice, but how tired would it get after a year or so?
The hippie in me says "don't be stupid, just go!" but at the same time, my life currently is here. Moving across a couple states is one thing. Moving to Germany is quite another. It all makes me wonder what I want to do with my life. Is my career the most important thing? (an idea that's hammered into me my entire life) Friends? Family? Do I have a plan? Should I plan? The lazy person in me just says wants to say fuck it, lets go. |
