Finally, Some Good News
I have decided not to make this unnecessarily long and drawn out. The last couple of weeks have been hell for me. I have been on this on going spiral of waiting and miscommunication. Finally, I have a break. I pretty much smashed the test and they like me. Yesterday, I was a bit bummed because I got hit with a tentative start date of July 11.
I was like what the fuck. That is like a month away and in my mind that’s forever not to mention the position could become unavailable during this time. I would have been out of work for a year, June 26. This afternoon, as I was explaining the situation to my son who is now Plurking, I got a call from my agency notifying me that they just received an email from the company stating that my official start date will be July 7.
This doesn’t seem so far away for me since I guess I know it’s a sure thing at this point. It isn’t the shift that I wanted but I can definitely work around it and make adjustments as needed. Most of all I can start getting ready for my son’s return to school and do something for my birthday.

Good for you! I only hope that it won’t take me a year to find work. Been a few months already.

CONGRATULATIONS and GOOD FOR YOU! It has been a long haul, but you hung in there. It will get better from here. From reading your posts I see a lot of great attributes in you and I hope you are aware of them. Can you sum up what you have learned/proven about yourself since you were out of work?
