I have to shout it from the rooftops.....
I finally (FINALLY) got a job, just today.
And it's one that I wanted. (yes, I was applying for some I didn't really care for, just..... to have a job) I'm just fortunate that, even though I set new rules for how "picky" I'd allow myself to be, :roll: , that I still got one I really wanted.
But I'm way excited. I actually got a better offer than what I was hoping, they are gonna train me for a position that I wasn't even applying for, which is a better one. Family owned company.... and I'm gonna be assistant to the hubby. Anyways, like I said, a better position.
Good pay, only about 15 minutes to work each way, and I get to start tomorrow. :dancin: (part time until my training is done... then full time)
I'm on cloud 9. No more "couch potatoe" disease for me:) I've been dying to get back to work.
So, you're all invited to my karaoke hang out to celebrate with me saturday night:)
haha

Thanks for the congrats Babs..... I SO needed to be back to work, you have no idear. No more bills coming in the mail marked "URGENT" now, haha.
Yeah, I just went and sang with them again last night. The lady bass player in the band (she's one of the band leaders) called and asked me to make it if I could. She has a new boyfriend...... she met online of all things (i gotta give that woman a talking to, LoL).... and she wanted him & I to meet. So, we went, I sang with the band...... and it turns out he's from my home town in Texas. (New Braunfels/Canyon Lake) What a small world.
But yes, I do go occasionally sing with them. I have a New years Eve gig coming up with them in Portland, that's supposed to be a big to-do, so that will be fun. If nothing else, I'm making some awesome connections to people in the music biz. And gaining some experience... and having tons of fun to boot. If I could afford not to work, I'd just do the band thing full time and forget about a day job. (but we all know that don't work, haha)

Ah, yeah, I'll miss getting to hang out. But my gosh, this place has helped to turn me into a bum. Not as bad as it used to be (i used the patch, haha)... but no, for other reasons.... I wont be able to be here much at all once the job turns full time.
But, gotta have a job.... and I'm getting one I wanted.
Ah, you'll miss me? Thank you Jesse, I'll miss you too:) :hug:
I'll be around, atleast for the next month or so.... just, not much. You all have my email addy though, so I expect you to not forget me entirely. If you do, I'll come back with a vengeance. haha
(wow, off topic here, but..... I'm trying to record and I'm getting a heck of a buzz in my headphones.... and it's going in the recording) That's unusual, I don't usually get this. :banghead: Always gotta be SOMEthing to ruin my good mood.

Thank you Ben:)
Jobs gonna be a piece of cake, laid back atmosphere & all that... I CAN WEAR JEANS, haha... It's an out of town place, everythings done per internet & fax, so no "office dress" required. :whistle: (ya see now why I wanted this one?) :D
I just gotta learn their computer programs & product, which will not be a big deal. I hate being "the new guy"- everyone else has been there atleast 10 years, but still, I think I'll like it, when I get into my "comfort zone" there.
Thanks for the well wishes.....

You think so?
I'm always nervous at new jobs, I don't like to be the *odd man out*, if you know what I mean...
I do usually get along pretty well with most everyone (in real life settings). And I know I don't seem like it here (that's a funny one).... but in person, especially around new people, I'm VERY shy.
But, thank you.... that was a nice thing to say:)

What they both said! I am soo happy for you I almost forget how jealous I am of people who have jobs they love!
You will fit in right away...the cool thing about a small company is that they pay attention to personalities; they would not have hired you if you would not fit in.
