So this will be my fourth winter away from skiing... and I just don't think I can hack it. I need to get away from the rat race. I graduated from university last April, where I have been for 5 years (the last 3 with no skiing). I had a depressing summer of job hunting and finally settled on a retail management job at home. It's decent pay ($40g) but it's sucking the life out of me and I hate it. I thought at least I will get to ski this winter to balance me out... I later found out that I will be transfered after christmas to somewhere where I can't ski. I can't take this rat race shit anymore. I'm putting in my notice on tuesday, i'll work my 2 weeks and then be gone. I have a friend that will hire me until xmas and then lay me off so I can get EI. But after xmas I need to get away from this shit and get somewhere that I can ski. I'd love to get into the industry or at least get a decent job at a resort. I can't afford to take the ski bum dishwasher route though, I have bills: student loans, down payment for a apartment building I bought, credit card, etc. Therefore I need a decent paying job ($35k +). I have a Bachelor of commerce and a BSc in Economics and a lot of retail sales and management experience as well as a lot of ski / bike industry and product knowledge. Where should I begin my search? I'm only 23 but I feel my life is passing me by as I build my resume and assets. I don't want to wait another 3 years to get back to skiing, I don't know if my body will be able to take it by then.
