Back at the beginning of February I posted about an upcoming job interview and asked for some T's & P's (http://forums.theknot.com/discussion/comment/7103676/#Comment_7103676)
The Colonel called me this morning to tell me I had been selected to be his administrative assistant! I have eyeballed this job for more than 6 months and held off on applying for other jobs (except contractor positions) until they finally boarded this. I first of it last August but government red tape and lack of movement on the part of some held the posting and interviews up for months. I wanted this job so bad I could taste it.
53 yo women are not getting hired too quickly these days so I am incredibly grateful and humbled to have been chosen. There were 60 applicants, 28 certified for interview, 7 cancelled, so 21 interviewed total. I am one lucky duck today. Thanks to everyone for their positive thoughts and prayers that came my way.
Now to call the contract house and tell them they need to replace me!
