What should my next career move be?

Take the job offer in DC that will make your name, nevermind things like "affordable housing" or "work/life balance".

Find some way to get by for the winter then go back to your old job in Maine as head chef since it's going to be a year-round restaurant starting next year. At least you'll be getting paid to freeze your balls off.

Aren't you tired of this shit yet? Just find somewhere with a nice beach and get a job as a janitor somewhere.

Move to Virginia and stay on the ship working as a yacht chef for the douchebag rich guy who owns it.

You're such a sucker. You gave up dealing drugs for this?

So I am officially not working on a ship anymore. The company pulled the plug on the whole operation and my captain ran off and got a job in Ghana on a ship that doesn't require a cook. I have several options, but none of them stand out as being appealing enough to trump the others. So I ask you, PD....WHAT DO?

All those options suck. Take whichever option gets you around the most people so you can find some different options. I'm tempted to say "Find some way to get by for the winter..." and afterwards only take the ball-freezing job if nothing better has presented itself.

Sucks, ECH...  Any of the guys who worked on your ship know of a spot?  They know how well you fed 'em, maybe they know of a spot open somewhere?

I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

Howbout this? Open a Virgin-island-cuisine food cart in Portland, be wildly successful, open a restaurant, bask in the spotlight as Portland's culinary darling, and by extension the culinary darling of New York and Vancouver BC, work wherever you want, the end.

I'd like to see ECH get into catering. Didn't Verthaine make a cool million doing that?

This actually sounds like wise words.

On the other hand, I'm right in the middle of enjoying not having to worry about random piss tests for the first time in over 2 years, so make of that what you will.

Even if they don't check for it, you really shouldn't be pissing in the soup.
