staying put....for now

I decided to go back on my thoughts and called the college that I have been waiting to hear back from. As luck would have it, I was put thru to the lady I needed to chat with and she basically told me that I have a job. She needs to call my references and then she will get back to me. I am guessing that I will do ok with that part. I just recently had very good luck with my references.

They pay is a few thousand short than what I had thought it was going to be but will have to suffer for that. I think with me being an employee of the college I think I can go there now. Not exactly the school I would want to attend but beggers can't be choosers. It's a very nice liberal arts school tucked away in the "boonies". I was looking at the majors there and am considering English as a major. I know! It won't do much for me but it will give me a degree and then I can move on and do something else and then go to school for something more useful.

I am pretty excited! I am thinking I will continue with training and even go to the job for a few days and then let them down gently. I know it sucks but I want to get a few more pennies from them before I make my move. I am going to see if I can do Saturdays or something. We'll see.

I am also going to be looking at a house in better area this weekend. Things may be looking up again soon!

SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMOND!!

I'm very glad for you!

You reiterate my belief that sometimes life deals us bullshit so that we appreciate the small things when they come along.

My fingers stay crossed for you!

Thumbs up! I think employees do get some kind of special deal. Not sure what. The benefits do kick ass! Maybe you'll see my hubby around? Best of luck - break a leg or something. Hope they call soon.
