Fort Bend ISD

So, I've been pretty miserable at my job lately. Well, miserable is kind of a harsh term, but let's just say things aren't ideal. Granted, I have quite a lot of wiggle room to do whatever I want, but at the same time that wiggle room just proves how truly unorganized this company really is.

My mom has worked for Fort Bend ISD since I was in 4th grade. She's been trying to get me a job with them since I was laid off from Fluor Daniel in 2009. Well after years of searching she finally found me the perfect one. She demanded that I apply because she can't stand the thought of me not having health insurance. I obliged because I've been looking for an opportunity to work a bigger company with more room for advancement.

I walked out of the interview on one of the rainiest days in weeks, yet I had a smile from ear to ear. I nailed it. I knew I did amazing and they seemed to love me. But still, it was all just temporary. I still had to wait around for a call.

Weeks had now passed by and I had begun to lose hope. I hadn't heard a thing and could only assume the other candidate had landed the job. Well that was until last Thursday when FBISD called. They offered me the job. I know I should be ecstatic, but I'm really quite anxious about it all. This means I have to quit my current job. I know they'll be fine. They just hired 3 new guys and are not short handed. I'm just nervous about telling the owner. He's an awesome guy who would do anything to keep me (he knows how smart I am). I have to let him know that I think my manager is about as tech I'm now leaving the company when he had no idea I was even looking.

I think this is going to be a great opportunity & I can't wait to see what FBISD has in store for me!!
