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

Iagree

Now only if she can get Mr. SD to ship me that darn sweatshirt Ranting

laugh out loud
Jane waited over a year so you can wait a few months but I do apologize for the delay. We're waiting for the 10 year anniversary shirts to come in so I can ship them all out. Stick Out Tongue

May be Mr. SD is not sending me my t-shirt because he has a job for me too? WootWoot

Well, since you'll be in NV, you won't need the sweatshirt anymore, anyway. Care to leave a little bit of your legacy behind to someone in your true home state? (hint, hint) Angel Not laugh out loud

Ah, yes. Great minds and all that. However, you failed to make an appeal to emotion. That's got to give me a slight edge. Plus, she would save on shipping Stick Out Tongue
