I HAVE A JOB!!!
No time to chat, because I need to hop in the shower and get ready to go out for a celebratory dinner, but I got an offer from TutoringCenter today, I've accepted it and I start on Monday April 23.
I talked to the guy with the state about StateJob and he said that it might not happen, and it will certainly take a while longer, and he recommended that I take this one.
I'm trying to negotiate with them to get health insurance coverage immediately, rather than waiting 90 days. They offered to shorten the wait to 60 days, and I countered with an offer to pay 75% (instead of the standard 50%) for 120 days.
If that doesn't fly, I'll offer to pay 100% for 60 days, but that would be pretty tight.
Neither option will get me coverage by next week, when I have appointments scheduled, but I can push those back til May and should be ok. Better than July!
More details when I have them, but I have to go now!
YAY! I'm so happy for you! I've been sending out good juju vibes! I'll go have a celebratory Baileys and coffee in your honor! (Any reason to drink lately!!)
ReplyDeleteShit- this is gonna cut into your blogging time, isn't it? Damn! Knew there was a downside. For me!
CONGRATS!!
Congrats! What great news! Hope your celebratory dinner is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThanks, all.
ReplyDeleteDinner was nice, though nothing spectacular.
Then we went and played at the new Target - but did not buy anything!
I am worried about the whole working-for-money thing cutting into my blogging time, but I'll do my best!
