Yay, the wait is over, finally!

I got the job at the bank! WooHoo! I start tomorrow at 9am and I am so excited. I'm excited to have a job at all, but even more excited to have a job at a prestigious bank in the area where my opportunities are endless! And who doesn't love banking hours?! And benefits!

Woooooooooooooooooooooot! Finally the wait is over. That was a long couple of months. I can't imagine ever looking for another job...it was WAY too difficult!

Thanks to all of you for your encouragement and support along the way. I really appreciate it!

I'm a little nervous. I haven't worked out of the house in FOUR years. It's going to be so strange to have to go on scheduled breaks and lunches, etc. Hopefully it won't be a tough adjustment. My biggest concern is that I hope I'm good at my position. I know the opportunity for advancement is there if I just show the potential and excel in my department. All I can do is take it and run with it, and hope for the best!

So, here I go...back into the corporate world with my corporate waddle, haha!

Still no job :(

It gets harder and harder everyday that goes by and I don't get a phone call. I've applied to around 50 jobs just in the last month. I am starting to think that maybe companies are waiting to hire until after the holidays. It's getting so close to Christmas that there would barely be time for training me before we'd be off. Hopefully I'll hear something soon. Please keep us in your prayers.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus”~ Philippians 4:6-7
