Got called this morning by the TV station. The CEO asked for a second interview with me. So this will make 3ish interviews with them.

It's at noon.

The puppies have 2pm vet appointments.

It's going to be close as the weather is crappy.

Hope everyone has a good day and happy Friday

I R EMPLOYED!!!!!!!!!

Yep. As of 8:30am Monday morning I return to the mass of "working stiffs".

The TV company offered me the job at $1,000.00/year more than I had asked as my minimum starting.

On top of that I get 10 holidays (the standard 6 plus 4 Muslim ones) and I can negotiate to work one of the Muslim ones to have the day after Thanksgiving off.

Also, after 6 months I get a week of vacation and another week after I've been there a year. So yes, boys and girls, it means I can go to Pennsic this year!

Basically the interview I had today was to assure them that I am not the totally sweet and quiet girl that they thought I was. I had to promise the CEO that yes, I would stand up to him when he got crabby and rude and not let everyone push me around. I think what cinched it was telling him I help run security for a 13,000 person international camping convention.

I also has to promise that I would not up and quit after 6 months due to finding something closer to home (it's a good 30 minute commute from Amherst to Orchard Park).

Not only will I be doing admin stuff but will eventually be learning about high end sales, website stuff and TV production.

I think this will be a good match for me.

Thank you to all who wished me well and luck and supported me through the last several months. I could not have done it without you.
