exactly 13 months after my last day at my previous job i got an offer. if any of you remember my previous post about the place with the funky third fridays off thing it's that place because they really liked me and a position opened up.

kinda expected more joy and relief but now i'm just nervous about starting on monday aware but it's definitely the better problem to have. gotta get my life started!

Totally relatable but, to quote my wonderful grandmother, peace be upon her, "show me the body", i.e., no panicking without evidence. Easier said than done of course but I think of her saying that to me sometimes and it can be helpful. I hope it helps you a little.

Congratulations. I’m exactly 14 months since my last paycheck from my previous job. Hoping to see a similar reversal of fortunes
