I interviewed for my dream job last Wed. and thought I wouldn't hear until after Thanksgiving whether I got it or not. I felt good about the interview and I thought that if I read the supervisor right, I was the frontrunner. But as good as I am at reading people (survival skill from childhood), when I do make mistakes, it's when I don't know someone well. So I wasn't all that sure.
But she called today and offered me the job. They came in a little higher than she thought they could. It's close to my house, interesting work, a non-profit that works with kids, great benefits. I'm so happy, I've been walking around the house WHOOPING (and I never, ever do things like that).
I had my T appt. about 3 hours after I got the call. It was very hard not to call and leave her a voice mail, but I didn't. I told her once I got there and she jumped up and ran over and grabbed me up into a big bear hug. I think if I was smaller, she would have lifted me up and spun me around the room. It was kind of fun (and a little different) to share news that good with someone who cared as much as I did about the outcome.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, fellow Babblers!!!
