Should have gotten it in writing ...

Hubby's in the recovery room after his colonoscopy, the doc finds me in the waiting room: "Everything looks great, he's good for another five years." Your mouth to Goddess' ear, doc. Five years of peace would be very pleasant after the last five years I've had.

I just found out that I recieved a state grant/subsidy to complete some work I'm doing. This means that instead of paying $1150 out of pocket, I am having the work being paid for by the state.

So very happy!

I have a phone interview for a job I'd really like at 2pm eastern (less than an hour from now!). If y'all can send good interview-ma vibes, I'd appreciate muchly.

I am interviewing today for a new, slightly higher paying position at my current place of employ. I'm the only candidate being interviewed but I am still way too nervous. Calming -ma would be appreciated.

My interview-that-didn't-happen Friday has been rescheduled to 3:30PM today. Sounding-good-on-the-phone vibes would be much much appreciated.

MY interview that was snowed out Friday is today at 1:00. Due to said snow, I'm (horrors) wearing slacks instead of a skirt. Any job and fashion -mas would be appreaciated!

I was interviewed by Shawn!

Well, not really-- but it was a first year litigator and I kept wondering if she was a porny as the one we have here.

The partner, however, was called into a meeting-- so I'm back again tomorrow.

Regarding my interview this morning:

I hit it out of the park. If I don't get hired, it's because it wasn't meant to be, and the other candidate is more qualified. I highlighted all the experience and skills that correspond, how my future goals work with this position, how I want to work in higher ed, and that uuniversity specifically, how I have references from there, and also just generally clicked and brought up stuff before they could ask it. There was great chemistry with the interviewers. I had a really good time.

Out of 250+ resumes they got, they are only doing 2 interviews! Wow.

So, please, keep that jobma coming! The other candidate is interviewing tomorrow, and I should know shortly thereafter.

This would be a really good job for me and I need all the ~ma I can get!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Review went great and my overall score was "Above Average".

Thank you guys for all the vibes and the ~ma and the congrats. Feels so good. At Hellhole, I knew when things were wrong cause I would get told when they were wrong. Here, it's in the review and makes it a bit nervewracking because I wasn't sure what to expect.

My job duties are being expanded, I'm getting a kick ass bonus and a salary raise and they are making me a bigger part of the team.

Whoot!
