Saturday I got the call that the book store will hire me for the holiday season. YEA! It’s a JOB! And I have a second interview scheduled for tomorrow (yes on election day) for the library position. So maybe…just maybe things are starting to look up employment wise!
I'm a long time banker having worked in banks since the age of 17. I took a break when I turned 50 and went back to school. I graduated right when the economy took a turn for the worst and after a year of library work found myself unemployed. I was lucky that my previous bank employer wanted me back. So here I am again, a long time banker. Change is hard.

Yeah! Katie is gonna miss having you at her disposal!
I worked at a bookstore part-time for many years and I met a very good friend of mine there. I think you’ll enjoy it. Bookstores tend to attract good people…but be warned, you’ll feel like a kid in a candy store and want to buy it all!

I’ve heard that the bookstore discount is a very dangerous thing! 🙂

Oh well done……I seem to remember saying you would probably get a couple of offers at once !!!!! And you did. Congratulations. – Re: the white collies. Yes, there are quite a lot of them around and they are caused by the same recessive gene that the shelties carry.
