So tomorrow’s my last day at my current employer’s. Nearly 10 years, all finished. I cleaned out my personal stuff last week and brought it home yesterday (OK, it’s still in the back of the car but the car’s in the garage which is part of the house). I never thought I’d retire from my…

Tough Day…
So, today was a very tough day. First, I had to Google “how to write a resignation letter” (and yes, I wrote it at work because I am classy that way). Then I had to write a resignation letter. Then I had to accept the job offer from yesterday – via voicemail – and then…
OMFG
I was offered a job today. I have to answer them tomorrow. And I have no idea how I’m going to answer. Pros: 1) Company is in better financial shape than my current employer 2) Medical benefits are pretty much better (it’s high deductible, but the premium is entirely employer paid) 3) Commute is shorter…
An email from who???
I had an email from the company I interviewed with yesterday and Thursday. They wanted me to take some online personality tests as “the final portion of the interview process.” Hmm. What? I have no idea what to think, so I’m just going to hang out and wait to see what happens. Did I mention…
Interview
aaaaaaaargh. I’m not going to say the interview went poorly today but I will say that I am drinking a *VERY* large Cherry Pepsi Icee and this fact is the best thing that happened to me today. Other things that went better today than the interview: 1) Received 3 books from Bookmooch. (total # of…
Mahjobis…what???
Hear ye, hear ye: I think I might actually like my job. Who knew? Mahjobisnotsobaddis. So, I’m still in the endless pursuit of obtaining employment with a company not in the throes of a New Chapter (11). Today I had a job interview at a payroll outsourcer. I think it went well. I interviewed with…
So sleepy…
(and yes, I know that while I am sleepy, my brother and his wife are drop dead exhausted) So, today was a day I call SUPER PAYROLL WEDNESDAY. The workday started at 5 am. Ugh, I hate getting up early. And since sooooomeone insisted on watching all 55 hours of the Celebrity Apprentice finale show…
Mahjobiscrappis: A New Chapter (?)
(The chapter, BTW, is #11 of the Bankruptcy Code. Chapter 11 is not as serious as Chapter 7 – it’s more a reorganization tactic than a death sentence, theoretically). So, fun is when your payroll provider calls you and says, “So I hear your company filed bankruptcy. How do you plan to pay for your…
Where have I BEEN?
I guess it’s been awhile since I posted, huh? That said, my birthday weekend w/ Mom feels like it happened months ago. I think that part of why I haven’t written lately is that I am still upset that Kansas lost to Northern Iowa. I mean, Northern Iowa??? That game happened when Mom was in…
They say it’s my birthday
(da-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh) Well, okay, it’s actually not til Monday, but today was my last day of work. Until Tuesday, anyway (a girl can dream! Told Gene that if we won the lottery I’d be off work a lot longer and that my first phone call would be to Gwen and the second would be to Dr….
