I Must Be A Sweet Talker
All three interviews produced results. I had offers from all three companies.
Futura was at 18.47 an hour.
High Country was at 19 an hour with a dollar raise after three months plus a $1000 sign on bonus.
We already know about Smith Williams (though its actually a $2000 sign on bonus).
Obviously I chose the last company because their deal was too much to pass up. I emailed my honey and told him too. He finally wrote me back and said it was awesome, which settled my nerves a bit after not getting a response from my previous emails about the situation. I did almost say no to that offer because of our situation and because I thought the sign on was half the amount it actually is.
Which just made me realize how much care I take into considering him in my decision making when it comes to life choices. I know I usually say I’m concerned about myself and that I’ll take care of myself always first, but its hard. It’s hard when you want to be with someone, but can’t be.
At least I know this job will keep me busy and entertained to the point where it won’t be too hard.
Joe is on his way back to Bragg on sunday. He’s been in New York doing training things for the last month. They sent him packing after a medical condition cropped up (now fixed, it wasn’t life threatening. It’s actually kind of funny, but for the sake of his humility, I can’t share). He has to go back to PRC from the sounds of it. Let’s just say, I better get a call and get filled in on everything before he goes.
I haven’t been able to talk to him on the phone regularly because it doesn’t get service in NY. We’ve been e-mailing instead… well, I’ve been emailing instead. He’s poor about answering :P
So, I’ll be moving to Elko in about a week. Hopefully this’ll be the last move I’ll have to do for a while.
w00tage!
