:D I dunnno, j_crazy.

Just got off the phone with him. He says that at the LOWEST, I should see the same base I had before, and that I was incredibly underpaid based on my qualifications (I already knew this, as I made less than 50% of the industry average for my position). He also thinks he might know of a job for me right this second, for which I'll be looking at a competitive salary, good bennies, and I'll be able to work remotely, so I won't have to move.

I'm incredibly excited! Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Sounds pretty damn promising. Good luck with that.

And working remotely has its benefits, too!

Goodluck Otrap.

Dr. J found out last Friday that she passed her Veterinary boards and just about an hour ago got a call for an interview from her "dream job"

He isn't hot he's just rich. That's why he can only get my scraps and I have 1/20th of his money.

I just had everyone in the waiting room stare at me when I spewed my water all over my computer screen.
