History Repeating Itself?

So, four years ago, the hospital I was at went through lay-offs and an administration change. Our department was then outsourced to another company and I survived all of that and thought I was safe and started looking for a house. Obviously, I was lucky I didn’t go through with buying one since I lost my job and then moved to Maine.

So, at my new job, our department is going through a heirarchy change. We’re getting a newly created position of a CIO and some sort of underling like a VP. After over a year, the hospital has finally decided on the CIO, who will be starting in February.

To be honest, I haven’t thought much about it because I’m happy with my job and I’m all comfy.

However, after visiting my parents over the holidays, I came to realize that I really do want a house or a condo of my own with a nice large kitchen and a roomy great room/living room and a workshop where I can invest in a light table and a grinder and such to work on my stained glass at home. Really, I want their house with some tweaks only here in Maine. So, I kind of started looking online at homes for sale at the end of last week, though I know it’ll probably be about a year until I have the money for a down payment. Still, I just want to get a feel for what’s available in Maine, what the architecture options are, etc.

So, all of a sudden on New Year’s Eve, my dad told me that I should start getting my resume in order because the new CIO could come in and decide to outsource our department.

It’s a strange, uncomfortable feeling of deja vu. Gah!

I wonder what the housing market is like in Bangalore.
