What a great way to be woken up out of a sound sleep -- by the telephone. Usually that would make me upset, but this morning it was a call I've wanted for seven months -- a job offer. Of course, I accepted.
I start on Thursday, which is very quick, but they wanted someone immediately. No problem; my social calendar is pretty wide open, go figure.
Thank you to every one who has kept the good vibes coming my way. I appreciate it all greatly.
I am astounded at how it came about. They say 90% of jobs are found through networking, so I dutifully joined LinkedIn, and other jobish sorta networky places. Did the mojo with Monster and Career Builders and all those places, ya da ya da. . . and to relieve the anxiety, I visited on Facebook -- which I considered to be just a fun place to hang out.
Guess what, it was a chance connection with an old friend from high school I found through Facebook that got me this one. Well, it IS a network, so I guess that counts. At any rate I'm very happy.
Today, I need to find some clothes that do not have shoulder pads.
Peace!
