      Well, the interview went pretty well on Friday. They were pretty up front about the money being not-so-great (if I get the job, after taxes it’ll be only a little more than what unemployment is paying…. 🙁 ) But; the benefits are pretty awesome–full medical, dental, tuition reimbursement, they pay for any classes that are needed for our licenses, AND A REAL PENSION!! The last time I worked for a municipality, you got pension rights right away, not after like 10 years.

      It’s 10 hour days that start at 4 AM (GAH!! 😮 😮 I am SO not a morning person….) and end at 2:30 in the afternoon, which isn’t so bad. And it’s day shift and not nights or rotating shifts—I was a little worried about that.

      I got a follow-up call from the township yesterday, asking for a contact number for one of the references I had provided, and I was told that they’re looking to make their decision this week, and it’s down to me and one other guy.

      I keep telling myself that no matter what, I only need this job until we can make our move to Kentucky in a few years, and this job also will give me the chance to get a drinking water treatment license from NJ, which, like my other NJ licenses will carry reciprocity in KY, and will hopefully be very helpful to me in getting a job down there.
      So…..please continue to keep the fingers crossed for me! 🙂 I’ll update when I get more news.

          Oooh, glad it’s down to just two. Hope you get it–those sound like really splendid benefits! 🙂

          #810326

          Wow those sound like good benefits! So hopefully you get it!

          And actually working is miles better on your resume then sitting on your butt doing nothing.

          That sounds good! I hope you get the job.
