Gaf The Horse With Tears Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 So, last week I interviewed for a position at an Eng. Firm. The position is as thier IT manager. A week has passed since I interviewed. This morning I was at the point of giving up on this job. Feeling pretty owrthless and rejected. Then my new boss called. I GOT THE JOB!!!! $15/hr. to start. Health Insurance, 401k, 2 weeks paid vacation and a "significant" raise after 30 days if I meet thier needs. They have 12 computers, an exchange server and a Server 2003 with 15 users....I can do this.
Fierce Critter Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 HUZZAH!!!! <-- leaping and jumping and clapping hands That's awesome, Mark. You always impress the hell out of me with what you know about computers. I know you'll rock their socks off.

Onyx Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Sounds like a fantastic position - *and* benefits, paid vacation *and* an opportunity for a significant raise too. Congratulations!
Gaf The Horse With Tears Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Thanks everyone. I am so damn excited. I've been in a terrible downward spiral emoptionaly since I lost my job in January. This is not just what I needed finiacially... this fits my emtional needs too. I know that there were 3 other people under consideration for this job and I beat them out. Wooohoooo... god.. I've cried and laughted and danced since I got the call...

bav Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Congrats, man. Having the 'looking for work' monkey off the back is a great feeling.
Msterbeau Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 right on Bro. May God richly bless you.... Don't you mean "May God bless you richly"? *Runs*
Brenda Starrr Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Thanks everyone. I am so damn excited. I've been in a terrible downward spiral emoptionaly since I lost my job in January.

I've cried and laughted and danced since I got the call... Ugh....I know what you're feeling. Coming here to MI has been one of the happiest choices I've ever made. Sadly, the company that I transferred with had basically lied to me. Not my old store, but the new one. It made my finances a wreck. I cannot seem to build a book at the salon, no matter how had I try. Even though I'm a happy person, this has been eating at me, and it's beginning to show in ALMOST all aspects of my attitude. BUT, I have a 2nd interview tomorrow with a company for which I used to work. Please send some of those positive vibes my way! I'm really happy for you!!
creatureofthenyte Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Congrats Gaf! $15/hr in Michigan, now That is awesome.
Gaf The Horse With Tears Posted July 18, 2007 Author Posted July 18, 2007 Thanks... but... I bailled on Michigan about a month and a half ago. I live in Port Charlotte, Florida now.

Soulrev Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Hell yeah man glad to hear it! I'm sure you'll meet and exceed their needs and you'll get that "significant" raise. Congrats.
