I have a job!

[figment]

I've accepted a position I didn't tell you all about before: Assistant Director of the Center for Teaching Excellence at AU. This is a job at the place I've worked for a couple of years as a grad fellow, but it's a fairly substantial promotion. It's also full-time, well-paid, with benefits: A Real Job.

Plus points: I like the people, I'm happy about the job, and major plus, I don't have to look for another job until I want to (at least a year I think, probably more like two). I can take courses at AU for free, finish my degree, build some valuable skills... Hooray!

Minus: I start NOW. I have to suck all of the knowledge out of the current Assistant Director's head in the next two days. But I still need/want/plan to graduate in May. Wish me luck!

I realize from hypoxia's post that this must have happened because I just printed 25 beautiful copies of my resume on fancy paper, and bought a padfolio thingy. Heh.

Well, he has a job here, like I do (now). Leaving would require notice, and would likely happen in the summer sometime, but could happen any time if vital. Jobs (and friends) are all the "obligations" we have here, though. Family's all over the place but not in DC.

The same thing with us, except we loooove the Cities! (We were stuck in Mankato until late in 2004.)
