Big News!!

Here it is... the culmination of my pursuits that I've been talking about on this blog up till now... a goal finally accomplished... I have been offered a NEW JOB at a travel company! And a BIG and well-respected travel company at that!! I start May 2. I am so so so excited and so ready to get on with it. I will be in training for three weeks, and then I will start regular employment after that. It is a corporate travel position, but the company is big enough for me to eventually move into leisure travel, whenever I'm ready, and if I am quite honest with myself, I think corporate travel is the best thing for me right now. It's much less sales-oriented, so I can get a feel for booking travel reservations without having to worry about the sales aspect of it. And sales is what I was most worried about. So working in corporate travel is kind of a load off. I still want to eventually move into leisure, and this definitely paves the way for me to do that. And, the pay is higher than what I'm currently making, which was a very pleasant surprise! I haven't officially quit my current job yet (was gonna do that today but the boss is out), but I'll do that Monday. And I have a four-day weekend to look forward to it... road tripping tomorrow and Friday, going to the baseball game on Saturday... life is good. :)
