Work News

Well, my good news is this ... I was called into my supervisor's office today, and of course, being a borderline pessimist, I'd half-expected to get told of how I was doing something wrong, and it had to be corrected ASAP. (Oh, ooops - that would be my prior job!)

Anyways, I was called in, and found out that I was getting a raise. Partially for getting my California Brokers License, and also to put me up at the range I should be in, for someone working at my level - and doing what I have been at the desk. Now, I was expecting to get bumped up another thousand, maybe two thousand at best, for getting licensed. Instead, I ended up getting an extremely sweet $7,000 (yes, seven thousand) increase - and this is before my 90 day review, which comes up around July 20th. :)


Now, I may or may not get an increase at 90 days - so if it doesn't happen, I wouldn't be disappointed. I'm happy that I'd gotten such a substantial increase now ... especially since it took me over 6 1/2 years for me to get $6,000 in raises at my prior agency.


So, there it is, my lovelies. My work news. :)

Hope all is going well for everyone on the work front - whether you have a job, or you're looking for work. Have a great tomorrow, and good luck to [livejournal.com profile] nakedhead and [livejournal.com profile] sigmaration on their job interviews tomorrow! :-D

This is me, being jealous.

Actually, in talking with Kellie, we're thinking that it might be their way of getting me at the salary I would have if I were hired in with a California license from the outset.

This is weird, I'm getting comments from way back on a lot of posts.

Wow!!
Congratulations!! That's really wonderful news and I hope you and Kellie go out and do something outstanding to celebrate!! Now all we need is to get your woman into a job that makes her happier and you guys will be all set!

I'm really, really happy for you. Rub some of that good work mojo off on me, please!

We'll be going to the BNL shows in Los Angeles at the end of the month - that's perhaps the biggest way to celebrate! :)

Hopefully the good work mojo can rub off onto those that need it - I wish there were some way to bottle up the good Karma and spread it around!!
