Welcome, AJ!
Hey, I think I got a job. Well, I do but will get more of the particulars tomorrow. The agency that found it for me called me tonight about 5:30 p.m. and I will be getting close to almost $2.00 more per hour than I was making and I will definitely have weekends free. It is temp to hire but they told me most all people end up being permanent. That would be nice. It is in the loan/mortgage business which I know nothing about but they are willing to train me.
Also, my trip to NY is not an issue because I told them about it and that it is non-negotiable and already paid for!
