As most of you know, in September I was unceremoniously escorted out of the building, and away from the job I had for 7 years. It was not a good time in Dagney-land.

I took a (hopefully & thankfully) temporary position with a recently merged Wireless communications company, as a grunt front line customer service rep. (It's not a bad job, I've done it, and jobs like it for years...I am just burnt out on it, and the money sucks)

My resume had been spread far and wide thanks to our friends at Monster.com (Radar, take a hint, I'm seriously pimpin this site now). Out of the blue, I had an email requesting a phone interview. The phone interview resulted in a face to face interview. The face to face led to a second phone interview, with a second face to face interview yesterday.

All during these interviews, I was asked when I could get out of my lease, if I'd be interested in relocating, where I'd like to meet for carpooling...etc. All positive signs.

About 10 minutes ago, I got my call....I start Monday Morning at 0830.

And the question that I can't help but remember...."we start our technical writers at 42K....is that _enough_?"
