I do indeed have a new job that I start the day this posts.

I will be working at the front desk at a local eye doctor chain. I have the store I went to as a kid, which is nice. The cool thing is that there is a lot of room to cross-train and advance which is exactly what I need.

The pay is a little less per hour than what I was hoping for. However, there is an amazing bonus system in place that we earn as a team, and it’s a really great team, so I don’t at all feel like I’m settling.

I ended up having 5 interviews with this company with various stores and regional managers. The one regional manager was very set that she wanted me, but she was also very set on finding me the perfect location. A spot where I could thrive.

The whole process was lengthy, which is why I spent a week unemployed technically, but I spent that week pretty confident I had a job offer incoming soon so I didn’t really stress it. Also, it made for a nice staycation.

Anyway, I’ll fill you guys in, in a few weeks, on how the job is going. Gives me a chance to settle in and really form an opinion. But I’m super excited!

In the meantime, I have a few other things to fill you all in on over the next couple of weeks. Such as school. So tune in next week for that post!
