squeequegI have been offered a job with ConHugeCo. Not the one I first interviewed for, but the one I got referred to because I impressed the interviewer.
And I've accepted.
It won't be riveting work, but it's good, and it pays quite a bit more than I'm earning now. Part of that is the longer schedule, but in this case I think it'll actually help. It's a 10-6, M-F schedule, and I intend to use the extra time in the morning to write. A scheduled, set time that's just for writing will help me get off my butt and finish this revision. My commute has also been halved.
There are two potential downsides I can currently see: I may have to work a bunch of overtime at certain times of the year, and there's a big bookstore nearby. As in three blocks away. Huuuuge bookstore. Calling to me.
My current employer wants me to stay a whole month before heading over to ConHugeCo. I'ma thinking no.
