Beyondthesea Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Hi guys! Yesterday I was offered a new job, but I have yet to sign the acceptance letter because I haven't received it yet. That makes me super nervous and I hate being in this 'limbo' thing. Will you please say a little prayer or keep your fingers crossed for me? BIG HUGS!!! Link to comment
kellbell Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Hey alright!!! Crossing my fingers, toes, and eyes for ya! Is the position you really wanted or was it the other one? Link to comment
Beyondthesea Posted July 14, 2006 Author Share Posted July 14, 2006 This is the one I really wanted, and I'm so psyched! It's exactly the environment I'm dying to be part of. It's a big team environment where everybody helps everyone else. That's what I like more than anything. The place I work at now is very much into 'separate departments' and no one talks to each other basically. I hate it. Link to comment
rms8 Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Congrats! Don't worry about not getting the letter soon. They have to figure some stuff out and write it up first and then mail it. It could take 1-2 weeks. If they offered you a job it's definitely coming! congrats and good luck! Link to comment
kellbell Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Ah I see. I hope you get that letter soon! Link to comment
Beyondthesea Posted July 14, 2006 Author Share Posted July 14, 2006 Actually I was hired through an agency, and they are waiting to get the letter from my new employer. They should email/fax it to me when they get it, but I'm too impatient to wait Link to comment
RayKay Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Yay! Congrats! Don't worry, it can take some time to get the details organized through Human Resources, as they need to enter in the position details and so forth. And, well, HR people have other things to do as well.... Link to comment
Beyondthesea Posted July 14, 2006 Author Share Posted July 14, 2006 HR people have other things to do as well.... What? Well good thing I didn't go for HR like I was thinking originally. Link to comment
Hope75 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 BTS, Congratulations! Fingers crossed for you- let us know when you get the letter! Link to comment
Beyondthesea Posted July 16, 2006 Author Share Posted July 16, 2006 The job is just for an administrative assistant but it is SUCH a good team environment! Every person on the administrative team does everyone else's job as well so we all help one another. When someone is really busy, we all pitch in to take the load off. It's really nice and exactly what I'm looking for. You also sign a 'no gossip' policy when you start there and that's also a welcome addition. My assistant at my last job went spreading it around to my boss that I was looking for another job. Very cowardly...she was actually from a temp agency and did this to use as a tool so she'd be hired full time. You'd think she must be young right? Nope. She's nearly 50 years old! What a jerk.

PRSOV Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Congratulations on being the top candidate! I hope all will work out for you and I will keep my fingers, arms, legs and toes crossed just for you! Best of luck PRSOV Link to comment
Beyondthesea Posted July 16, 2006 Author Share Posted July 16, 2006 Haha! Thanks! I actually was so angry at my job on Friday that I gave my notice anyway. I'm officially in limbo! I really just don't care anymore though, I HATE my current job so much I'd rather go pound the pavement in two weeks. Link to comment
