A New door opens.....

Well, here we are in the first days of March already!! I can't believe how fast the year has begun.

I'm sticking to my new resolution of writing a couple blogs a month to get myself in the habit of keeping up on this. It's such an easy way to keep everyone up to date on me/us without emailing everyone separately. So nice!

Well, as you know, my job search has been frustrating. I went to take the test for the USPS last Wednesday. It was pretty easy, straight forward. I passed! So who knows when and if I'll hear about a job there. Well, I got home from my testing and was just passing the time as usual working on applications online, etc, when the phone rang. I didnt recognize the phone number so I was hoping it would be some employer prospect. It was a guy from UPS freight. I laughed a bit thinking of all eggs in my basket, this is the one that hatches! He was really nice and asked if I wanted to meet for an interview, I scheduled that same day to meet.

Well, I went in knowing it would be for a night shift....6pm-midnight, Mon-Fri. I passed a quick typing test and a quick 10 ley test. I have tojump at the opportunity because at this point, this is the only door to have opened for me. I was told I would hear back the middle to end of this week; well I heard from him Friday of the same week I interviewed (I take that as a good sign). I'm meeting today (3-2) with him again to get all the final paperwork together and see when I'll start. I'll keep my eyes and ears open for my chance to jump on full time and/or day shift.

I'm planning on keeping my current PT job with Starbucks at Safeway. I'm just gonna be working days there for a change.....so hopefully they will still put me on the schedule a couple days a week....and not just weekends.....since I'll offically have weekends off from this new UPS job. :) I'm looking forward to a challenging new opportunity here.

Here's to a new chapter in my life's adventure book! Wish me luck, stay tuned for more updates.
