I got a real job!! Oh, man...I am so excited!
Got the offer last week but was waiting to hear if I had cleaned out my system enough to pass the pre-employment screen...YAY!
Maybe life will start looking up a little bit now.
After my job got outsourced my income dropped by half. This job isn't quite up to the level of what I was making before, but it's a step in the right direction, and in my field.
DAMN!!!
Got picked out of over 35 people who applied. Feels pretty good, I must say!

9. Excellent! Congrats to you too! Here's hoping for no more outsourcing
and for some labor-friendly wages for a change!
