Woohoo-- "You're Hired!"

In Donald Trump voice...Yeppers!! Mega is has joined the ratrace again!!! I will start as an account manager for a company in the metro area of where I live on Monday, the 14th. The current pay is about the same that I was making at my old job, BUT the company has excellent benefits. I went and took a tour of the place and am very impressed with it! I start on the 14th and also have another interview to go to next Thursday if I want. Not sure if I will or not (hmmmmmm). When it rains, it pours! I'm starting as a temp so while I'm temping, I will have benefits from the temp company. When/if I'm hired full-time (that's what they are looking to do), I'll get a raise and even better benefits!! GOOD STUFF MAYNARD!!!

I'm leaving here soon to go out of town and visit my parents! I'll be back on Tuesday. It's going to be such a great trip (knowing I have a J-O-B to come back to).

Just had to share my unabashed excitement with my good friends here at SR! You all are the BEST and the world is my oyster babies!!!

Thanks so much guys and I really appreciate it . I will go to the other interview just in case. I understand that nothing is on "lock down" just yet and it's always worth checking other options. I just really don't like to be faced with that kind of decision making! LOL. Really though- practically every time I've had job offers, they all come at once and each one has its own pros and cons of course. I suppose it's better to have a choice than not though, right?? These choices are truly life changing though. I could botch the interview next week though so I need to put down my crystal ball! That remains a big struggle for me still .

I probably won't be back until Tuesday so you all have a great weekend!! Take care of yourselves.
