    My dream job...it's mine!

    Well, just earlier this year, I had a terrible job. Was scarred to death, but I quit it. I felt like such a loser. Didn't know what was out there with the poor economy.

    Within a week, I landed a new job. Within a week after that, I had about 6 job offers. I ended up working 3 of the jobs since then.

    Since about last month, I told one of my employers that I was going to pull back some because their rate of pay was not any near what the other companies were paying me. They understood.

    Then just end of last month, I saw a job posting for my dream job.

    Even though I was quite satisfied with my current job situation, I applied anyway.

    Long story short, I went to the interview today. I knocked the ball out of the park. The interviewers stepped out to confir my interview answers. Not 15 seconds later, they re-entered the room. I was shocked. Was offered the job right on the spot! I ousted two other qualified candidates that had interviewed before me.

    I start on Monday. I've been waiting for an opportunty for 4 years now to get a job in this particular field!

    I'm really happy...

    As of now, I'll be racking up 5 W-2's for next tax season...LOL

            Thanks everybody

            Life has been challenging enough without the bk...

            But having lived through everything...a divorce and bk...I'm a wiser person now.

            There is hope for all of us, no matter how bleak a situation may appear, there is usually someone in worse off condition.

                  LOVE A SUCCESS STORY...........
                  Yes, often there is a "silver lining" in that cloud over our heads, and a "light" at the end of the tunnel on our darkest days....

                  Bankruptcy might "bring us to our knees", but when we get back up, all is well in the world again!!

                  Congrads, do a good job for them...... make yourself proud!!!

                  My suggestions are from "personal experience" and research only. Do not consider this as legal advice. Each bankruptcy case is different.
