You're Gonna Make it After All


Thank you to everyone who commented on Sunday's neurotic post. Yesterday evening, I got the call from my recruiter that I got the job. Since I didn't have a beret handy, I settled for giving the Merry Husband a high five as he ran down the staircase to congratulate me.

It's been over four months since I left my job, and although I desperately needed this break, it feels good to be heading back to work. I start on Tuesday, the day after I get back from a long weekend in L.A. to celebrate my sister's 40th birthday.

This is a contractor gig, so while the pay will be more than I'm used to, I'll only be there a few months. After that, I start this whole process over again. But I am happy that I will start the new year gainfully employed. For those keeping score at home, Goal #38 has been crossed off the list.

  1. Congratulations, and don't forget that contract jobs often lead either to a permanent offer, or to more contracts.

  5. Here I am bringing up the rear in the congratulations train! I agree with Jim, contract work often leads to full time employment. I would add that the beauty of contract work is that you get to see what the company is really like without being a par t of it - and if you are offered a full time job you can make an informed decision.
