phew!

I worked at my last job for 2 years altho not unhappy there I kept getting called by head hunters and out of curiousity I put myself out there.  Went for 5 job interviews ( in my life total, I have not had that many), there were 2 jobs that I was really sad not to get and at that point, I started to lose interest. After all, it's hard to look for a job when you have one, there is only so many doctors appts and even sick days you can take without feeling furtive. The headhunter called me with one more job.  I was almost angry, how many times can you change clothes in a Burger King, and this job asked for 3 interviews, I'm sorry, but just don't have time in my busy schedule for it.   After the first interview, I was kind of hooked, but finding out that I had to interview with the Director of IT and the Director of Finance, I almost backed out.

It turned out to be the job of a life time really - I love it there... of course a job is a job and it's not always perfect, but this is as close as it gets for me.

Last week I found out that at my last job, they laid off 10 people from IT after selling the company - they laid off the people with the least seniority, and guess what... that would have been me on my team.

Someone is looking out for me! Thank you!
