I might not be going to Anthrocon

Diz iz how we do it in da NORTH!
I just landed a job working at Technovate Technologies Inc. This is a dream job for me. This company is located in downtown Toronto. They are hiring me on to do research writing. They are also hiring me on to do professional writing; this means that I can finally use my B.A in Professional Writing. Basically, what Technovate Technologies Inc. does is international marketing. They take jargons of text that foreign companies give them. Technovate then translates them. Where I come in is I turn those jargons of texts into fluid paragraphs and make them marketable. I then do research to see which companies across North America would use their product; furthermore, I do some research into investors and perform lead generation duties.
This is an important job because they want to pay me between 15-20 dollars/hour and give me full health and dental.
Yes, I do realize that I booked a suite with some people. My first task of course will ask them if I am able to take the time off and tell them that I DID have a previous engagement. I DO hope that they are alright with this. If not, then I will NOT be able to make it down to Anthrocon this year. To the people that I am sharing a suite with, I will gladly call up the Westin, explain to them the situation and ask them if I can have the name changed to another person. The main name will be changed over to Silvermoon. She is officially my second in command for the suite because she paid me already and would naturally have been running the suite with me.
Thank you all for your understanding.

I really want to go to Anthrocon. Things have been pretty tough ever since I was laid off from Threat 4 back on January 30th.
Good luck though, hope it all works out!
Second, I do hope they honour your previous plans. With this much lead time and the fact that you've already laid money down (tell them that) they should hopefully understand. It's not like this is uncommon in today's world of changing jobs/careers.
Third, I'm honoured to be your 'second'. If you can't go, let me know as soon as possible and we can work out what I need to do: sharing of names, monies, etc.
I still hope you're going though!
Ok...
So, now its Vulpes, Snapback, Silvermoon and myself...
I need one more person now...
I think Jello is going to be in the room....
Btw, I'll be making it out to Toronto for May 18 and 19 for raver's bday party, and to peruse downtown and visit some people. I was planning on paying for my spot in the room that weekend :3
They should give you the time off though, unless others have requested it off too much
I'm actually going to be at What The Fur that weekend....
i cant go this year either sadly ><
