That's right ladies and gentlemen...Javert got a job! [The Wave] [Party] [Group Hug] [Big Grin] [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

For those of you confused by my celebration, allow me to illucidate. The economy currently sucks, and I'm a lazy college student. So yeah, I'm just a bit amazed that I've succeeded in getting a job.

And at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, no less. Which means, as some of you know, that I'll be able to do a ROCKY impression every day when I walk to work! YESSSSSSSS!!!!

*hums ROCKY theme*

Oh, and use this thread to post any positive career or job info. There's far too much bad news today, we need some optimism! [Smile] [Smile]

Congrats, Javert!

On the positive side, my work eval was very glowing--enough that I don't understand why one of my bosses seems to be kissing my nether regions... Since I passed my last test for promotion, I should get a raise very soon.

I don't have a new job (still the same one that was new in February), but I am back in school - and insanely giggly excited. It's only one class, but already it feels like breathing after too long a stay in a plastic bag. ^_^

Oh! And congratulations!! ^_^

Awesome, congratulations!

My husband just graduated with a Mechanical Engineering degree, now he's taking off to S. Cali to job hunt.

Congrats, Javert.

Some good news: in the past 2 weeks, I've made 500 bucks off incentive (which buys me that plane ticket to wenchcon). [Smile]

We used the Rocky Theme in a production of Bugsy Malone that we did this summer. It was the funniest scene (a fight scene) in the entire show. [Smile]

Congrats!!!!!
