In the Nick of Time
I know better than to count my eggs as chickens, but...
I had applied to a marketing position with a local non-profit (which, amongst other things, does foster care) last week. I received an email requesting a phone interview, but within the email she implied that the position was part-time. Upon further clarification, it was confirmed that this position was in fact only part-time and I was forced to withdrawal my application (the ad specifically mentioned paid time off and 401K benefits, so this was a surprise to me that it wasn't full-time).
Today, I received an email from the company stating that they had further discussed the position and have agreed to make it full-time. Would I be interested in a phone interview considering the change?
And did the angels sing GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST?! Did the heavens rejoice?!?! Were the skies opened and the sun....
well, okay, I simply replied with an "absolutely" and we'll see where this goes (which potentially could be to a full-time position that I would thoroughly enjoy but only pay me half of my current salary) but nonetheless, this news came at exactly the time I needed to hear it most.
(forgive me if I make a run to the ladies' room to do a little private happy dance.)

Everything will work out...I am keeping my fingers crossed for you!
YAY!
It feels like we've both been looking for jobs FOREVER, hasn't it?
I think we'll land new jobs at practically the same time.
I've got my fingers crossed for you!
