SQEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

I am now an employee of a large internet retailer that began in Seattle in the founder's garage doing bound material as a CSA.  I go to new hire orientation Friday from 2 to 5.  Flist - note the time since I have trouble getting my appointment times correct.  I begin training on Monday for two weeks.  Full benefits, 401K and stock options!  

Casual dress.  Very casual dress.  Some work in jammies and slippers.  I think I will wait until I've been there for at least a week before  I show up in the jammies.

I apologized and apologized for screwing up last week.  She didn't seem too upset over it, I took full responsibility.

I can still work my next two footballs games for the other job and then we'll take it from there as soon as I know my schedule for the large internet retailer, who corporate headquarters is up on the hill in Seattle.

I know, even after the fuck up of last week.

People love it when you own your shit then move forward. ;o)

Congrats.

I owned it 3 times in the interview! I owned it twice after I got the job offer and once before we even sat down.

Of course this is all subject to background check but they aren't checking credit, they are checking felonies (of which I have none).

yeah!

Congrats! Sounds like the jammies and slippers would be a perfect gig for me too!

Now if I could get away without the bra too....the job would be just perfect!

Congratulations!

Yeah, maybe your box will actually leave home now.

[starrchld.livejournal.com]

Lol, I'm just as bad. I have a box for a friend sitting here, and her daughter was born in Feb! I'm thinking of putting something else together for her, since she probably doesn't need this stuff anymore :-) (And my mom still hasn't sent last years Christmas gift to her family)

YEAH!!! Congratulations!

Where is your work location for this mysterious retailer?

[chelelev.livejournal.com]

Location is in Kennewick, just about 10 miles or so away. There are two other locations across the US doing what we do but because we are so close to the mothership, this is the largest call center.

I'm still squeeeeeeeeeeeeing over the idea of wearing my jammies to work. I could so see myself rolling out of bed, brushing my teeth and driving to work. It is cold now so I would have to at least put on some sort of shoes but I could carry my slippers in.

I watched people come into for work in flip flops.

The last call center I worked and lasted 10 days, it was less money, they had a dress code (no sandles if there was not some sort of heel, no jeans, had to upsell and generally crappy conditions and they hired anyone who was breathing.
