It has felt pretty good this last week and a half to take a break from posting here and honestly I do not know what my posting schedule will be going forward. There is a very good reason for that uncertainty on my part.
Today I will work my final shift at Redlight Redlight. When I left my architecture office job almost 2.5 years ago now I felt pretty good about it because I did not love what I did. I very much liked the people I worked with (for the most part), but the job was killing me on the inside. Leaving Redlight and turning my keys in tonight will be a bummer in that moment because I not only like the people I work with, but I have enjoyed the job (for the most part) over the last 1.5 years or so.
It was certainly physically demanding, but it was also a lot of fun. I met so many great people and have made some new friends along the way that I am very grateful for. For many reasons I owe Brent and Teege a lot for taking a chance on me when they first hired me and I think they are glad that they took that chance.
With all of that said, today is also very exciting because after my shift is over I will be able to turn my mind to my new job as the Central Florida Marketing Representative for Cigar City Brewing! I am extremely grateful for the opportunity and I would be stupid not to admit that my experience at Redlight Redlight had a lot to do with me getting it. I am really anxious to get started.

So now that I have announced my new job that should explain a little bit of my uncertainty about my posting schedule going forward. Until I get going I am not exactly sure of what my day to day schedule will be. On top of that I want to be appropriate with what I write about here. For example, since I don’t want to be reviewing Cigar City beers, I am not sure how much I want to be reviewing any other beers. Maybe I will just go toward posting less frequently and do more educational entries. Until I get going with my new job and figure that out you will probably not hear much from me in this forum.
For now I am going to enjoy pouring my last few pints tonight and then will very much enjoy a long weekend.
Cheers!
Hugs and best of luck with your new job…very excited for you.
Will have to come see you tonight since it is your last! Had the Cigar City Cubano-Style Expresso Brown Ale last night at Mellow Mushroom and LOVED it.
Congratulations. I am very proud of you!
