I think I may have a job. I interviewed today with FERC (the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) today and they spent two hours selling this job to me. A salary that is twice what I'm currently living on, awesome benefits, benefits for my parents, a gym INSIDE the office building, 401k matching, pay increases, etc, etc. Um, I'm sold. I just got an email saying that HR has been notified to send me an official offer. There are things that could go wrong, but it really looks like things will work out. The job isn't super-awesome (it will be really beneficial career-wise), but it will allow me to solve all of my pressing problems (e.g. my parent's financial distress, my financial distress, working too many hours to have a life, etc, etc).
I prettymuch blew it up at work today without even really trying. Apparently, when you're smiling, the whole world does really smile at you. Even the old cranky people wanted to talk to me today.
The only bad thing about being so happy, and so relieved, is that it's so fragile. If this falls through, I feel pretty certain I will fall hard. Keep sending those happy thoughts my way.
