You're Hired!

After waiting for two weeks, I got a call from the guy who interviewed me. He said I had interviewed well and they wanted to offer me the position. I tried to stay calm on the outside but I was freaking out on the inside. I actually was not expecting to get the position. But earlier in the day I had received a call from one of my referees who had given me a glowing reference.

Now came the hard part, negotiating both my salary and a start date. That was actually easy enough, I pretty much got my way on both. I start in a week. I’m excited but anxious. I actually do not like starting new jobs, a bit like starting new relationships. You have to prove yourself from the start. You have to impress everyone and you have six months of probation.

I figured they would not have given me the job if they did not think I could not do it. Besides, I had never gotten fired from a job before. I’m willing to put in the effort and work hard. The bad news is that I probably will not have so much time to blog. My current job allows me lots of free time.
