  After returning to the US from living in Germany, I had started my job search when Covid-19 limited options to the point that I decided to take a front-line, part-time job that might lead to a management role in a new industry.

Now that the vaccine is widely available, I am vaccinated and restrictions are being lifted, I am resuming my search for a position that is more suited to my stronger skill sets and work history.
