A Little Change (Cont'd)

No TG content.  This is just a little bit about me.

If you have looked at my "about" box, you may have noticed that, since I started this blog, it said something to the effect of "looking for a different job."

Last Friday, I gave a tentative accept to a tentative job offer.  For reasons I should not go into, but people who work with the government will immediately understand, I have to be approved not only by the company I'll work for (done) but by the client company as well (not).  I have an interview this morning.  This means I be at work for three hours or so, rush home, put on an (alas) regulation suit, and head to the client company.  Then back home, change, back to work.

If all goes well, I will hand in notice on Monday and be in a new position in two weeks.

The new job will involve a lot more responsibility, probably more hours, less opportunity to travel to places Meg can be Meg, but there are other advantages.  And I'll certainly work to let Meg out more locally in the coming weeks and months.  After all, I have a lot of extra time that I used to spend in the great job hunt.

Oddly enough, since my tentative acceptance, my immediate management (much of the reason I wanted to leave) has changed and I received two calls with interesting opportunities.

It never rains, but when it does, I'll put on my skirt-and-boots. :)

  1. Congratulations!

    Are you going to travel en femme, like Kimberly of Texas?

    If you haven't told anyone at your present job about your plans, and that the opportunities were unsolicited - explore them before leaving for the feds.... You're in the catbird seat now - enjoy it!

  2. Good luck. Job or career change is always time and energy consuming.
