Guess What! (again!)
That’s right Internet. I GOT THE JOB! I got the coolest job AND a huge crazy amount of money. I just can’t even believe it. Of all those qualified, experienced people I got the job.
Now that I actually have the job, I’m feeling sad about my old job. I really do love the people I work with (for the most part) and the job is never boring (to the point of being unbearable). But when I told my manager about my new, great opportunity he basically lost it and told me that he was going to sabatoge my going to the new group by making a case for not being able to keep up with work without me. Isn’t that vile? He was totally awful about it. The job is mine, but this jerk may keep me in my old job (at the old pay) for 90 days. Makes me so certain that I’m making the right decision.
And…. the MONEY! *sigh* I’m going to splurge and spend the extra $12.95/month and get satelite radio. You have no idea what a big deal that is for me. I love my money. But every morning I drive to work and I see that green glow from on top of other drivers’ dashboards and I’m sure I’m the only person in the world sitting in traffic without satelite. And Howard. And Maxim channel. And THREE NPR STATIONS. So I’m going to bite the bullet and join the land of no commercials.
Oh, and my diet goes much better when I have nothing to celebrate. I met my brother for a celebratory drink at Hooters instead of going to the gym. Then I ditched the 1500 calories thing and joined Bec and her hubby for pizza and wine at Sauce. mmmm. Oh the guilt… I’ll be back on it tomorrow…. with the exception of that wedding with the open bar we’re going to…. Diets suck.
I hope you’re all having equally crazy wonderful days!
Toutes mes felicitations! Congrats!!!
Big money?! Hey, I always wanted to say this, I consider you to e my best friend.

Congratulations!!!!
That’s fabulous news! Very petty of your current (soon-to-be X!) Boss.
I’ve heard about this satellite radio thing, but know nothing about it. Let us know how great it is!
You’re going to love satellite. James got it for Christmas and it definitely made our drive from AZ to Portland more bearable. It as great to listen to Howard, stand-up comedy and music too! Without commericials! Did you know Playboy has a channel too?
yiippeee baby!! I am so happy for you!!! when can we crack open a bottle of our fave corona?
Way to go!!!!!! And go to personnel about the soon to be ex boss. If he hasn’t had anything to say about you not being able to keep up until now, they should see through him.
Hey, good for you! Way to be! Woohoo! Yeah! Rock! Paaaartaaaay!
And I love that you celebrated your victory with your brother at Hooters. Freakin’ great.
wow! cool deal!
Let me know how the Sirius is. I am thinking of getting it for my car.
