Ot: Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been temping since August, my assignment was due to end at the end of the year. I was just offered permanent. The best benefits in the Bay Area (with possible exception of Google). And not having to worry that I have to start job hunting in January

Something else to celebrate Thanksgiving, aside from Rosalind and my 20th anniversary.

Re: Ot: Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After all you have been through over the past few years, crandc, NOTHING makes me happier (no, not even the Blazers finally putting the right pieces together) than to hear this news. I am SO happy for you right now! CONGRATS!!!

They couldn't stomach (heh) the thought of losing out on your treats.

The way to a supervisor's heart is through their stomach.

...hmmmm...perhaps, that is, unless it was a gross cake that was outed.

Congrats! So now that it is permanent, you can start slacking a bit and post more often here . . . I expect to see your posts 24/7, no excuses.

Re: Ot: Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, all
I have the kitty litter cake instructions, thought once of making it for the Blazers but was afraid they would not see the joke.
I will have a different supe, it is a different department, different building, so it was not my pastries that won her heart.

Re: Ot: Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's official! The offer had to be approved by a VP. It would have been totally unprecedented for a VP to override the hiring manager, but the offer is not official until the VP signs off. They are talking of starting me there right after Thanksgiving, if my current manager will let me go by then. If not then the following week. My current manager talked to the new one about my physical needs, which technically she should not have done, but I am relieved that they extended an offer knowing I have accommodation issues. Since I have had job offers withdrawn as a result (illegal).

PBF, does this really make you happier than the Blazers, or are you angling for another goodie box?

Congrats crandc!

Btw, were you ever able to watch that DVD? I kind of wish I never tasted your cookies because now I know what I'm missing!
