Employment, employment, employment (sung to the tune of "Announcements")
I just sent in my acceptance of a job offer from my first choice CPA firm here in Portland. I'll start sometime in early January of 2008. Yay! No recruiting season for me!
Also, my boss hired my boyfriend (to do computer stuff) and his sister (to do stocking) yesterday. Nepotism in small businesses: it's a beautiful thing. Of course, there is the potential wrinkle that we now not only live together in a tiny apartment but will be working together in a small business. Anyone out there have advice on working in the same place as your sweetie? We're the third couple to both be working there (and there are 13 people in the entire enterprise) so there's already a precedent, but I'm curious to hear about other people's experiences.
