Relief!!!

I didn’t want to talk about this very much when it was still so up in the air, but it looks like we may be moving to Vegas!

Jake called me after he got done with his interview (he’s in Vegas right now, lol) and said that it went REALLY well. The interviewer is the hiring manager (HM), and they really hit it off. The HM said that he really, really liked Jake. He loved how much Jake knew about the property, and about surveillance in general. They discussed the pros and cons of the different systems, etc. The HM said that he’s about 85-90% sure he’s going to offer Jake a job. The position he applied for has over 100 applicants and three openings. The HM asked him if he’d be willing to take an “operator” (his current title) position if he didn’t get the “lead operator” (shift supervisor) position. He said “Well, that depends. It’s going to be expensive to relocate across the country. Can you give me a ball park as to the salary?” The HM quoted him a number, and it was $5 an hour MORE than his current pay for the operator position, and $7 an hour more than current pay for the supervisor position.

I’m finally letting myself start to get excited! If he gets it, he’ll get an offer in writing in September. Yay! Think happy thoughts, everyone!
