Poster: A snowHead
|
Let's talk about daft ski resort choices. Some of you might know that we moved from France to the USA this year. More money that you can shake a stick at, four weeks holiday, and able to flex time over the business quarter.
Where to book a skiing holiday? Vail, Jackson hole, Whistler?
Ah, screw it. I just booked a week in Lans en Vercor:

We absolutely can't wait, and our 5 year old is desperate to get home to see her mates. Anyone else admit to such a triumph of nostalgia over skiing common sense? Mon coeur est resté en France!

@JamesHJ, I'd say that's one of the best decisions of the season.
Hang on, you're in US? Not fake nooos I hope?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Much as one admires the inhabitants of the colonies for their hard work and graft... a certain sense of relief is found when the flights home are booked!

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

TBF, when I was negotiating with HR, they asked me how many days paid leave I currently had. It turned out to be something like 56 days under the French system. Poor chap nearly fell off his chair!
