Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board Dev finally got a job! ...but wait, there's more...

I got a job.

Working at a shop that only does electrical components for machines. Kind of the same thing I used to do, but I will not have to deal with the mess of the grimy machines.

I'll be going over electrical prints and testing the panels before they ship to the customer.

This place has some really nice procedures in place from what they showed me today, so there is accountability for everything...something sorely missing at the last place I was at.

Start tomorrow morning. Will be working 58 hours a week or more to start with. So, my time here will be limited...but I'll make it count.

I'm really thrilled for you, Dev. It's great to hear that thus far they've impressed you and it's a notable improvement from the last place you were working.

I know time will be limited but look forward to you posting when you can! Definitely a place to unwind after a long day (and long week). And can't wait to see your comic book reviews once you get caught up with the backlog of comics I know you're dying to read!

Oh yeah. I think my pull list is still going to take a hit, but it will not be quite as drastic as it was going to be.

see ya when we can!

Congratulations, Dev.

58 hours a week?! Must be one nice paycheck.

It'll definitely help. I am starting a little lower than I was hoping for, but am getting a review in 60 days. Still way more than I am getting on Unemployment right now.

Sah...WEET! Way to go, man!

Congrats, Dev!!! Best of luck!

Glad to hear it, Dev. Way to many friends here out of work for my tastes. Hope it goes better for all of them.

Dev, you put another piece of happy on the end of this good day. I'm glad for you, bud!

One day down. Went really well. Got two sets of prints done. Plus a few other things (paperwork, tools brought in and organized.

12 hours and 45 minutes in the bank.

My eyes are tired.

...now I find out that the job I interviewed for at the College (as a temp) is now an external posting, and the guy who interviewed me and makes the decisions wants me to apply. It's part time, but the pay is much better. No contest without the OT at the current job.

Plus I could bid on permanent positions at the college after 6 months.

Going to apply (nothing to loose), and the process will take a few months anyway...which means I should have a raise at my new job, making the decision a little more difficult.

I like this having possibilities now.

Options are good. All the best, bud

Dev, that's amazing. Best of luck.

Oh, to have such difficult choices!

Congratulations, Dev.

It's been a long (11 year) dry spell) time coming.

I've worked 37 hours in three days, and will have 55 hours by the end of 5. I'm pretty tired, but the job is going well so far, and I like it and the people are still pretty cool.

Good for you!! Gives me hope.

Dev, this is really great to hear. I've got my fingers cross that you do have that difficult decision in a few months--you deserve to be able make it!

47 hours in four days, and 8 more to go tomorrow.

Wow...that's gonna seem like a piece of cake.

Dev, can you lend me a dollar?

[ducks]

Seriously, though: Congrats. We knew you could do it.

55 hours in 5 days, or therebouts.

Tired, and still a bit cold from working in a shop, but enjoying my job, and the possibilities that exist there.

Mover to MI, I can get you a job. The hours are long, but the check at the end is alright.
