Hi Boomer Comrades,

I have an update. Well, I went to the thrift store several times, and I was told by the manager that she didn't have time yet to go over applications. Then 2 weeks ago, she called me and told me that she needed an Asst. Manager, of course, I was looking for a more simple type job. Anyway, I talked to her and she said that she needed to get more organized and that she would call me.

In the meantime, 3 weeks ago, I applied for a data entry job at www.tns-mi.com. A friend of mine works there and told me that they had some positions opened, so she turned in my resume. Well, they called me earlier this week and I had my interview on Tuesday, and they offered me the job on Friday (yesterday). Later on, yesterday I received a message from the thrift store wanting me to start immediately.

Isn't it funny how things work out that way?

Well, because TNS is more organized and offers great benefits, and data entry is second nature to me, I am going there. Not to mention the fact that it is an 8-5, Monday thru Friday schedule.

So, that is my update, I start work on Monday Aug 22. Another thing I liked was that they gave me sometime to sort things out at home before I started working there.

Plus, I want to use my brain to work on my other life's dream, my project on writing about my experience living and growing up on the Greek Isles.

Thanks to all of you for your support and encouragement. Chick thanks for starting this post to begin with. It was the motivation that I needed to get going.

Cheers,
Cathi
