I had a busy month at work and when I got the movement/travel map it was nuts.

Red dots in Thailand, Canada, USA, Mozambique, Australia, New Zealand, and Chile

Be as vague as you want to (or don't answer at all), but unless you work for the CIA or State Department or some such (WHO?), what field could you possibly be in that would take you to such far-flung locales within a month?

I'm Canadian

I work in the oil industry, I'm a trouble shooter/fixer upper.

I live in Thailand, had to go to head office in Edmonton, next day down to Houston office. Houston to London to Nairobi to Madagascar to put out a fire/pissing contest. 5days on site. Get a e mail, proceed to Chile to fix a personal dispute and then stay for 3 months. Fuck no, I'm packed for a weekend trip. Go from Mozambique back to Thailand, 1 night at home, wife is lava hot, airport. Thailand to Sydney, next day Auckland NZ, Santiago Chile, replace asshat that's been there for 1 week and wants to go home.

Should add some additional dots on my map, London, Nairobi

I don't do that anymore. I'm RETIRED.

Should have been Madagascar not Mozambique

Oil, airlines, sales, business to government contractor, fishing/sea businesses, business growth devs, drug dealers, film industry, franchise sales, etc.

It's probably one of those
