Oh my effing G.
Am no longer phone monkey. Am now, instead, design assistant(code monkey) for web marketing firm. As of this morning. Phone interview Monday, in-house interview yesterday, job offer today.
How did I manage to come by this opportunity, you may ask? (Or not, but I’m telling you anyway, so deal with it.) I was talking to this guy on MySpace (which is how all my stories seem to start, these days) and he asked what I was into, and I said web design, and he said “Really? I work for a web design company and a position just opened up. Would you be interested?”
Anyone who has known me for more than five seconds knows my answer to that question. So I sent in my resume, totally not even thinking anything would come of it, and now I’ve had my dream job practically dropped into my lap. Well, maybe not my DREAM job, but certainly a job that is a solid step towards my dream job.
I start Thursday.
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Vi (rhymes with "pie", not "tree") is a 26 year old mother of two who enjoys Cherry Coke, anime and homemade mac & cheese. She is especially fond of anything that comes in purple and people who use border="0" in their linked image tags.
Congratulations!!
Brilliant, much success with your new job!
Congrats and best of luck!
