I should write something here about the job that just fell into my lap. I really should, but right now its honestly too good to believe. I mean, come on now. A job like this doesn't just fall into your lap when you aren't looking, does it? Things like that you dream about and such, but they don't happen. Not to people like me. $3200 Alienware laptop for personal and work use? Company car? $70K a year starting minimum salary? A flight out to the company headquarters for two days just so they can give me a tour and get to know me better? A phone call not 24 hours after sending in my resume to do an initial eval because I'm highly hireable by a guy I've met online and seems incredibly friendly. Not to mention a note dropped later on saying that the director is ex Air Force and thinks I will be a great asset because I follow direction and have discipline. Magic during the lunch break, and the MMORPG of my choice while at work to releive stress. No, these things don't happen. They went the way of the dot.coms. Am I going to get my hopes up? Too late for that, they are already up. Hell, when I applied at NCSoft I thought I was a shoe in, but they still haven't even called me back. That job is still open, but will they get back to me? How is the military going to take this? I mean, yeah they can't stop me, but do I really want out out? Sure if the job pans out I won't need them any more. This job is amazing beyond belief, and a great boost up. Well, actually I wouldn't need to be boosted any higher than that. The job is one that I can't really go any higher. Its almost like I meet the minimum requirements yet they want to hire me at the upper level, and train me into the position! Naw, it can't be real. Its happening too fast. Maybe I will go into detail more later. Perhaps I will just disappear off the face of the planet. Only time will tell.
