It’s been a while since I have last posted something, and I had good reason.
Over the past several months, I have been preparing myself to move to Nairobi, Kenya, after accepting an offer to work for the Security and Safety Service (SSS) of the United Nations Office at Nairobi (UNON).
This does not necessarily mean that I won’t be posting anything related to the topic of fire prevention and emergency management/response/mitigation, as the job that I have accepted actually encompasses all of these.
As the Assistant Chief of the SSS, I am also responsible for fire response on the compound.
It didn’t take me too long to find that there was a lot of work to be done, and while I won’t be sharing the specifics of how we operate here, there is benefit from sharing what I have learned.
For now, I’m going to concentrate on staying warm and learning how to do the job that I have started on July 28.
This job provides a lot of opportunities for myself at the supervisory level, and is a good combination of security work and emergency response.
Stay tuned for more posts in the coming weeks.
