So I'm employed again.
The company that interviewed me in their Anchorage office and then again down here gave me a verbal offer. I go in Friday to get the offer letter and sign some forms. Yay!
The extra most special bonus part about it? I'm only earning a little less than I was in Anchorage-where the market is supposed to have inflated wages. I guess not as much as they used to. Or maybe I wasn't earning as much as I should have been up there?
It was funny though. He asked what I expected for salary and I gave him a number. He said "that's lower than I was thinking, why don't we raise it to thi$ number?" I stammered "uh, sure, okay." Haven't even started working and I got a pay raise!
Hope all is well in your universe!
