In the end it all works out

I have a J-O-B!!! Starting Monday I will be working at Branch, Bell, Zoghby & Associates, an Insurance and Investment Firm. It is a small practice, just three men, but it seems like it will be a fabulous fit for me. I will work Monday - Friday 8:30-12:30 and eventually until 2:00 M-Th but never past 12:30 on Friday! It's exactly what I was looking for so I hope it will go as well as it seems it will from the interview process. I have continued the streak of being offered every job I have interviewed for thus far in life so I am pretty excited. I did have another interview this morning for a Book Keeper position at the mall...I have to say it may have been one of the most awkward interviews I've been on. First of all the man interviewing me comes in and says, "You realize you are interviewing for a Book Keeping Position and you have no accounting background". Um yes I am aware of what I applied for but the position read "Part Time Bookkeeper/Office Assistant" and then went on to describe ALL of the things I have done in my previous three jobs so why would I NOT apply for this job??? Um excuse me sir, why are you interviewing me if you are "confused" as to why I am applying...he even went as far as writing "confused" on my resume he had printed out. So we proceeded with the interview, although at that point I thought it would save me some time to just stand up, shake his hand, and say nice meeting you but this is not the job for me. As the interview progressed he seemed as confused as he apparently thought I was bc he still seemed to be interested in hiring me even though I was not an "accountant". When it ended he said I would hear from him next week to hopefully set up a second interview. No offense sir but I don't think I need a second interview. I jumped in the car after and called the company from Wednesday back and accepted the job with them. I start on Monday! So here's to be employed again! I am glad that I no longer have to look on Craigslist and AL Jobs everyday in hopes that the perfect job shows up and that they "L O V E Me". Now life can settle down and be "normal" again. I am very happy about the position and that I can now have a normal schedule and be around people everyday. Hopefully I can celebrate a little this weekend (AKA Get out of the house).

I will be in Atlanta on Thursday :) I am very excited to go back for a few days! I have a full weekend and will probably be exhausted after!

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend!
