YES!!!!!


After two long months, I finally got the job I have been dreaming of. No, it is not my exact dream job, but it is the job I wanted the most. It has great pay, excellent benefits....I can't wait to start working!

I've been out of the working business for almost three years. I love my children, and I am very grateful to have been able to spend all this time with them. But it is time for me to step back into the working world.

When I got the phone call I almost cried. I applied to this specific job back in August. I went for an interview, and I thought it had went well. Turns out I was second best. They gave the job to someone else. Well, that someone quit after only two weeks. I was called in for a second interview. Things were looking pretty good. Two weeks after my second interview, I was told they were no longer going to fill the position. I was devastated. I had really wanted this job. Being upset and on a rampage, I applied for at least fifty other jobs. Night shift, weekend, traveling, it didn't matter. I was determined to find a job. Out of nowhere, I got a call from CF Jordan (the job I had wanted so badly.) I was ecstatic! Two days after that phone call, I had already received an offer letter and taken a drug test. My starting date is October 31st. I could not be happier! Now I have to wait....

This job will help us out more than you know, not that we were having huge financial problems. But it will definitely take the stress off of my husband who has been our sole provider for the last three years. We can go on date nights whenever we want. We can buy the boys tons of clothes for school. We can buy items from their fundraisers. No planning or budgeting necessary. I can now finally buy my husband a Christmas/birthday/father's day gift without having to ask him if we can afford it. We can do more things to help out with our community. Just last week, we were asked to join a community labor function. It was in Arlington, which is about an hour and a half away from our house. We would have loved to help, but we couldn't afford the gas to get out there. Now we can. Both of our grandparents are going through a little financial bump, we can not afford to help them out. We can afford for my husband to have knee surgery, which he desperately needs. This job is one of the best things that has happened to me.

Working late or weekends...no problem. I will do anything to keep this job. I will go above and beyond to be the best dang employee ever. Believe me!
