Fine, I'll make my own announcement.

70,256 5,366 December 17, 2009 at 11:22 PM in News
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

No...I was silly enough to think that I could help people accept that she is a real person and to stop making threads about her. But deleting them works too.

Forgive me for being lazy and not looking back but will Schooby return to be a normal poster once she gets to Las Vegas? I thought I read her modship was temporary until she started working at SD.

edit: I looked. Apparently my memory IS failing. It seems she will be a moderator in addition to her new duties. Sorry to have bothered you.

No and I asked her if I could have the honor of being the first one she warned. Sadwalk

It was the other thread asking about mod nominations that got me thinking about it.
