My new job

April 1, 2008

So I have good news and bad news. The good news is that I have new job. The bad news… well, it’s complicated. This has been kind of a crazy week and I’m still a little overwhelmed with it all.

I went to this university career event this week and one thing led to another and well, I am happy to announce that I have received an offer which I accepted. So as of April 1st, I am the new Pork Procurement Associate for Cargill in the Netherlands.

Of course, initially I was a bit wary at first, considering their reputation but I have been persuaded of their commitment to the environment, public health and animal welfare.

Unfortunately, as you can imagine, this position will not be compatible with this blog, so I will have to delete it by tomorrow. So cache it while you can because tomorrow the archives will not be available anymore.

Well. It’s been fun. Ta-tah!

    Why “this position will not be compatible with this blog” ? Corporate blogging is still underdevelopped in the Netherlands. You have a carreer there.

    just change your name on your blog. I did the same, since my work isn’t compatible with my green views

    and take out your name in your posts. then your name connected to your blog will disapear in a few days from all search engines.

    would be a shame to put an end to your info!

    [...] Tsk tsk you guys. I expected more people to call me out on the blatant April 1st joke that was yesterday’s post. Some of you actually believed me, it seems. But come on! Pork Procurement Associate? (Actually, [...]

Out of the Closet

This is the Closet Environmentalist, my coming out journey towards sustainability on a student budget, bypassing the unwashed-hippie stereotypes. This is a record of a struggle against the murky waters of the Greenwash Sea.

Me? I am a Russian-born Portuguese expat living in the Netherlands. My background is in Environmental Engineering and Urban Environmental Management. Yes, I know what I'm talking about so you better listen to me. This is me:

*no flowers were harmed*

You can also catch my writings on Celsias.

Feel free to subscribe because I have absolutely no idea when I'll be posting again:
