Hello my trusted friends,
I am so needing a new job that I am putting the word out in this forum that is less than conventional.
If you know of any positions that speak to what you know about me and/or what you find in my resume (pasted in below), please let me know. Ideally, I would like to start a new job at the beginning of October (after returning from my planned walk across Spain). If something came up earlier (between now and when I leave the 23rd of August), I'd gladly flex as much as I could to make a new job work.
Thank you so much for being someone I can confidently ask this of.
