It is true what they say, good things do in fact come to those who wait. I went in for an interview today at Belk and walked out with a job! I will now be working in the sports clothing department? or something like that. Yesterday night I got a phone call from the manager asking if I could come in for an interview today and I of course didn't hesitate in saying yes. Well when I showed up today he interviewed me and then asked if I had moment because he wanted to see if one of the other managers was there to do a second interview with me. I over heard him telling her he thought I had potential and was wondering if she had a moment to do a second interview with me. She did, and so right away I got to do a second interview. When that happened I had a really good feeling about the interview and that it must be going well. I really wanted to get this job, b/c I had a good feeling about it night before and the day of. Well after she was done interviewing me she told me she thought she might have a place for me and would have Dan, the initial guy who interviewed me, contact me with more details. (he had already gone back out on the floor and she didn't want to disturb what h was working on) So I thanked her and proceeded to head out and wait for him to contact me further. Well when I walked out, I passed him and shortly after that he came tracking me down. When he did he brought me into his office and told me he had an opening in that department and was wondering if that sounded good to me. I immediately said of course, and was hired right then and there. It's only part time for now, but has lots of potential to get more hours and become full time if I do really well and meet my goals and exceed them. That was great to hear and I couldn't believe it! It also pays decently and I will be making 8.50 an hour with the potential to increase that if I work hard and do well. That was so exciting, and I knew right away I had to tell Nathan. I knew he would be relieved to hear I got a job and so quickly at that! ...well sort of.... but I knew I wanted him to be the first to know and I told him to call me when he had a chance. I told him right away when he called and he was so proud. :-) It made my day and I feel so much better knowing that I have a job and can start to help save up money for when we move into our house, whenever the time might be. Not to mention it will also be good b/c now I can get him his super awesome birthday present that I really wanted to do for him!!! Now all I have to figure out is what to do for Valentine's Day...aside from my one idea. But anyways, I was really happy to have acquired this job. I had a really good feeling about it going into the interview today and as it turns out, my gut feeling was right! :-) Icouldn't be more happy than I am right now, and I'm so glad I'm finally getting things on track to start a new journey! I will begin working probably in about 2 weeks and once that starts I will try and work as much as possible in the beginning. I want to be able to save up as much money as I can and help out as much as possible! I miss being able to spoil Nathan and surprise him with little things. My intentions are always good, but I didn't always have the means to be able to do what I wanted, and now that I have a job I will be able to being treating him again...and he def. deserves it, especially after all he has done for us this past year! Well, this mama is tired, so I'm getting off of here and heading to bed. Good Night World!
