Fine, I'll make my own announcement.

Geeesh...if this is how they are going to treat me now that I'm on the team......hmmmph. laugh out loud






OK here's the scoop...are you paying attention?



I had a nice long phone interview with Bryantq back in Nov. and last week they flew me in to Vegas for the face-to-face interview.
The night before last, Bryantq informed me that I did indeed get the job. Yahoo! Whee I will be starting as the CRM of slickdeals on January 11th (barring any travel delays). They have informed me that they want to start me off as a Moderator while I'm still here in MI wrapping things up and prepping to move so that I can see what things are like behind the scenes.

*The Wizard is letting me see behind the curtain. nod

I have the next 2 weeks off work due to the holidays and then Jan.4th I will go back to my driving job for my last day. On Jan 5th, Bea and I will get in my car and start the 2100 mile drive to Las Vegas. Faint
I think I know what Dorthy felt like on her trip to Oz.

I am extremely excited about this opportunity and a tad...scared as hell! laugh out loud
I only have about 1015 things to do in the next 2 weeks.


Ummm since I can't even sticky my own announcement...that I had to make for myself...this feels a bit anticlimactic. Sadwalk

They are expecting you to provide the snacks everyday :cookies:
Yeah...actually when I was told that I had gotten to job...cookies were mentioned.

Maybe they'll all pitch in and buy me one of those big food service type mixers that Rose has at the school! Whee

Yes...yes I have. It was a bit weird...I expected flashing lights, walls of machines...a smokey mist...

Instead they had a moat...alligators and scorpions...the employees were chained to their desks saying "yes, master" over and over and over. Evillaugh

Huh

Oh.

That was kind of anti-climatic. I was hoping to find out who wears a man-thong to work, does Ike really lick the pizza boxes and who actually owns the blow-up doll?

But moats are .... interesting ... too.
