I GOT THE JOB! I GOT THE JOB! I'M SERIES - I GOT THE JOB!!1!!
returned home from another job interview this afternoon - answering machine was a blinking..

2 messages from the company I interviewed with yesterday -- please call - so I did

Offered me more money than I was getting, and asked me when I could start - told them I could be there in about an hour.. lol

I start on Monday 10/29

HEEEE-HAAAAWWW!!!!!

other job interview today also went well - but the commute is longer and it's on toll roads. people I met seemed nice, but the whole place has this corporate stiffness and sterility about it - the gut said noooooooooooo

now if my partner gets a job we'll be back on track again...

12. If it needs to be renewed
make sure you leave yourself enough time - the response time of the State Dept has gone downhill under Condi Rice's stewardship. I'm sure you're shocked about that...
