It's been a very long week. Multiple interviews, lots of phone calls and one big payoff!
While I was in one interview late this afternoon, my wife got a call at home from another outfit saying that they had just e-mailed me an offer!!!
Hot damn. I rushed home to check my e-mail (probably the ONLY time I've wished that I had a fucking crackberry with me!!) and scope out the offer.
Open it up and the $$ are right (a little below the last place, but livable), decent benefits and a start date of Wednesday the 26th!
Shot an e-mail right back accepting the position.
The wife is happy, the oldest child is happy, and I'm definitely happy. Hell - I even called my mom back east because I know that she's been worried. My dad's been telling her over the past 2 months not to worry - "he's got the education, he's got the experience, he's got the work ethic - he'll be fine".
(I have my parents to thank for the education and work ethic - wonderful examples and I hope I am only half as effective with my kids as they were with me and my sister).
That's a load off my back and I grabbed a 12-pack and celebrated with a couple of beers.
I think I'll go watch a ballgame and have another beer.
