This is just a brief note stating that I have a dream job.

I work four days a week (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday)-- 11am to 3.30pm. And the job is only 10 minutes away from my house.

I nearly squealed when the Director of the Library told me that was my schedule.

The funny part is I've told my sister repeatedly that my dream job would start no earlier than 10am. "Ha! Well, in the real world, that'll never happen!"

When I told her that I got the job, and what my hours were, she said, "You're my hero."

Sweet... how bout pay?

There's a woman I work with who only works like 15 hours a week whenever she feels like coming in (but spends alot of time on her cell phone) and has made $35,000 in the last 6 months. Must be nice...

Nope, in Westchester.

Congratulations Lena! Sounds like an awesome job!

What are your newly accuired duties?

It depends. Every other week I change departments and work with the head supervisors. It's sort of like an orientation.

Sweet... how bout pay?

For what I'll be doing, I'm overpaid and lovin' it. I've already stashed enough money for future cons, namely SD and MoCCA. I think the high salary has a lot to do with my geographic location though.

Oh ya, well I work 8:30 to 5 and I get to drive through 45 minutes of gridlock traffic and park down a hill 15 minutes away.

I hate you.

Congrats!!!

When I get up at 5:30 am I will hate you . . .

When I sit in traffic for an hour and a half I will hate you.

But right now things are going pretty good - so congratulations!

(I'm so fickle when it comes to online relationships)

Seriously - that's great. :D I had a job with a 10 minute commute once and flexible hours - it was awesome.

Computer store, I sell things to people. I also fix there computers... I get to charge them money for what is usually user error. Fun stuff. I bet you have somthing like that too eh? Thought not! Ok sorry I am trying to gloat but your job is way cooler than mine.

Can i join in the celebration party? I'm working a job right now that is comprised of giving my opinion on different stages of development for a new business. It's easy consulting, and I work from home whenever I want!

Not as much pay as you, I'm sure, but I'm calling it a fair trade.

Congratulations... TO US!!!

Before I say anything else, I want to know how much you get paid. You don't have to be specific, but how much do you get paid at this dream job? Then, I'll tell you what I think.

If you got hit by a Guinness truck, at least you'd be able to lap up the puddle of creamy Irish malt liquour as you died, numbing the pain.

Oh, right. It's only 2:57am the next day here in Australia, what am I thinking?

I like tiny text because it makes people squint and they look ugly in public and then people shun them.
