In Which Schedules Move Up

[lunarflight]

So...

For the last month or so, I've been interviewing for and playing phone/email tag with a job in Santa Fe.

Today... I got the job.

It starts the first of July.

TIME TO GET A MOVE ON DOWN THERE.

*Cue panic, squeeing, and frantic packing and house search*

My family is going to kill me so badly.

Congrats on the job!

Like on Sunday, this Sunday, the first of July??

Let me and Beth know if you need some help packing or something. We would like to see you before you leave.

First, congratulations.

Second, starts July 1st? Or starts sometime the beginning of July?

My I make the following suggestions:
1. If it is July 1st, tell them that you really want the job but that will be very difficult to arrange. Since that falls on the week of a major holiday (July 4th, Wednesday), ask if you can start the following Monday (July 9th). You might have more flexibility than they're showing. It's an employee market right now.

2. If you ask our parents to move you in that short of notice, pose it as a birthday/graduation present from them. :)

3. If you have to start on the first, then immediately arrange a long weekend in July/August so that you can come back here and move your stuff down.

I guess this means we won't get to see you before you go huh?

Thanks.

Job starts on the 2nd.

1. I already said I could be there, I'd look silly saying I couldn't manage that now.

2. This is a good idea. I kept forgetting about this idea in the last three phone calls with parents. >.>;

3. This is a good idea and is probably what I'll be doing.

Yeah, probably not. I'm a little bummed about this, but, well, that's what I get for running off to New Mexico.

I'm sending you an email with more suggestions. I swear they're helpful and not overwhelming. Please read it. :)
