I am so excited, I thought I would be waiting forever but I finally got a job offer and accepted it! I start in 2 weeks, and to make it better this is at upper managment level, I will be in charge of about 15 programmers and help desk personal and the job is super close to my home. I was ready to commute far just to get some work but this was lucky! Great pay, more than I made before, great benefits and since I am going to be in managment, I get a good deal of vacation time right off the bat and more in 6 months! I was really getting worried there thinking I wouldn't get anything, ready to take whatever I was offered but this is even better than I could have expected. The company is great, very laid back attitude, all the employees seem happy, great vibe in the place, I don't have to dress up in a suite, business casuall for all and I will even get my own office! Where I live it is very hard to find a job close buy so the city was really the best option but this place happens to be located in the town right next to where I live, 10 minute commute max! So I'll relax now for the next 2 weeks and read up on some stuff they gave me so I am prepared and then back to working fulltime. They said once I am there 3 months I can start working from home on fridays and in the summer they let people out early some days. No drug test but I could have passed that no problem anyway. This will be my 1st time in managment so I am super excited, they really like my background and all my references from previous jobs had great things to say about me. I couldn't be happier! We already have great medical benafits but if needed this company has a great medical plan too so thats always nice to know. Plus they have a nice matching 401k contribution which I qualify for after 30 days of employment. WOW, what a relief!

ah leave it to ole NBG to be the one to be negative! Grow up dude! From you PM's too me, you described yourself as being pretty high up on the corporate ladder, so what, mad that I fianlly found a good job ?? Just so you know, I have stuck to my benzo taper, am down to 17mg per day and feeling great! Only other med I take is a bit of sub in the am as needed. You are too negative man! Like I said before, you sound like you are just mad at the world! Oh well. Your nothing more than a troll, its actually kinda funny! You seem to post all over this board too so you must have a lot of free time as you seem to know about almost all the OP's and always have info, must be on a lot of meds yourself! I bet 1st thing you do when you come one this board is check all my posts to see which ones you can flame! Twill be a merry xmas this year! I do feal bad for your family though NBG, you don't sound right!

Take this as a chance for a new start! Do not be swayed by those that work in the public sector. That is frequently barely work.

NBG, are you okay? Hope so.
Yes, my keyboard on my Mac was the recipient of Diet Pepsi. Cleaned it all off with Q-Tips and Isopropyl Alcohol. Couldn't even delete may last couple of posts to The DramaQueen . Works like a charm now. I know my last few posts sounded like gibberish. Oh well, at least BP comprehended them.
