No better day to start working than on Canada Day.
Call me crazy, but I just couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to manage the social media for Pan Pacific Vancouver. Double duty! Fortunately, this is a part-time, contract position, so I’m thinking slash hoping that this might just work out with my new job at Providence.
So why not start on July 1 – a day in which 450,000 Canadians descend on Canada Place for fireworks and festivities?
Luckily, it wasn’t a throw her in the deep end and see if she can swim day. It was a behind-the-scenes orientation, including meeting some of the staff, touring “the bowels” of the hotel and having a get acquainted dinner at the Cafe Pacifica.
I was even invited to stay overnight in a harbour view room, in order to get familiar with the guest experience.
Some photos:
The highlight of the day was, of course, the fireworks. And what better place to watch them than on the 8th floor swimming pool deck with unobstructed view?
What a treat to be welcomed so warmly into the family. I’m thrilled to be a member of such an iconic hotel in Vancouver.
