I got a (real) job!
« on: March 10, 2008, 10:00:52 PM »
So, after taking your advice, and looking around for other options, I decided that my current (part-time, student job) employer is the best option for me. The boss let me know two weeks ago that if I wanted to continue on after the summer (when I graduate), there's a job for me. I told him that I wanted to look around before signing on.

Well, today I signed on. This will be my first fulltime job - I start in july, so there's plenty of time to go, but it's always nice to know the road ahead.

Just wanted to share the news :D

Will your boss be ok with you devoting hours to the flawless running of this website?  :surprised:
Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.


Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!
