nobody fucks with da jesus.

yeah, I have no idea why that quote is stuck in my head...

I got the job! yay! I start on hallowe'en. 8.5% raise right from the get go, plus another 5% on top of that after six months. great health care coverage (which will be a nice change of pace from what I've got), and a generous 401k program that matches 3% (as opposed to the 1% I currently have). it's a five minute walk to work, so that'll save me almost two hundred bucks a month in gas.

this is such awesome news. I get to turn in my two weeks notice tomorrow! granted, it'll be two weeks of pure hell for me, but it'll be worth it. I also called up my predecessor to see if he'd cover inventory, as he's currently unemployed. he said he'd probably do it. and hell, if my boss isn't a total dick to me, I'll even volunteer to head over there for the saturday wrap up for inventory. we'll see how he treats me.

it's a bit frightening going into this job, as it's completely different than anything i've ever done. but I'm sure many of the principles will be the same... it's a small operation too, which means I'll be wearing several hats. that keeps things interesting, and I'm good with that.

I feel awesome, oh so very awesome, uhh!
