I would start with what you have in your hand, and go from there. Take the BBB and go from there.. Its something.. and in your hand..

I'm kind of stuck here. Do I take the job at BB&B and hope that the newspaper job comes through eventually?? Or do I wait till I hear from the newspaper?? The paper would be paying me almost $15/hr with benefits, 401K and profit sharing, not to mention my own Pet of the Week column. And I'd be doing what I love doing best, writing.

They (newspaper) havent formally offered a job. BB&B has offered an advancement, that's a sure thing. I'd take BB&B and wait out the newspaper.

I agree with what Craftlady said... "a bird in the hand" rule applies here.... Until you see if you get that other job then it would be GOODBYE BBB!

I guess I got my answer!! I gotta do what I gotta do to pay my bills. I called my manager at triple B and told me I'd take it. I just hope I hear from the newspaper in the meantime.

I know it is confusing, but you are actually in a great "predicament"! You have bargaining power with your current employer! Because he knows about your pending newspaper job, he is more likely to meet some of your needs at BB&B! Of course, you have to be careful not to ask for too much and him say, "well good luck at the newspaper!"

I agree that I would take his offer for the CS position and still make yourself available any time the newspaper job calls! Good luck, Donna, it sounds like things are heading in the right direction for you!

HUGS,

I agree Donna. But I would also defiitely keep my options open with the newspaper. If they still want some part-time work, perhaps you could write for them on somewhat limited basis until they are ready or willing to offer you full time. Good luck!!!

I called Joan yesterday as a follow-up. She said that the General Manager wanted to meet with me and would be calling.

Lo and behold, 2 hours later, he did call and I have an interview this morning at 10 a.m. Then I'm off to New Haven to pick up the remainder of my things and go to my Pheresis donation.

I'd like an answer right away, however I'd feel better if they took it under advisement and called me in a day or so.

I'll keep you posted!!!

[borzoimom]

Sounds good- keep us posted!!

[DrKym]
