Suit Up - Round...um....whatever.

I had my 4th interview with Washington Mutual yesterday. As a recap: 1st was the Career Fair where I interviewed with the manager of Canby; 2nd was the second interview in Canby with the MGR, ASM, and OpsSupe (I didn't get that job); 3rd was with the manager of the North Portland branch and her ASM; 4th was with the ASM of NPDX along with the other Personal Financial Representitive (she and I would be working very close with each other and the MGR wanted her to have some say in who gets hired).

This last one was really, really great. I left feeling like that is where I'm SUPPOSED to be. I think I'd fit the branch very well, and I have a lot of sales skills to offer them. It takes me about 14 minutes to get there and back (even in traffic) and the position REALLY offers me the opportunity to have a salary and make enough in commission to allow Gina to stay home as long as she wants. Also, the bennie package is AWESOME and WaMu really offers a lot of opportunity to move up in the company as fast as I want (and am willing to work for).

Throughout this whole process, I've discovered a new facet in my relationship with God. I've prayed constantly and so far I've got some very quick answers. Truely and completely giving things over to God has always been a tough spot for me, and this situation has helped me grow very quickly.

I REALLY hope I get this job. It would take so much stress out of our house, and I know Gina would feel a LOT better with some set income coming in - it would really allow her to stay home as long as Audrey needs is. We both feel that Audrey needs Gina home untill she's at least 6 months old, and this would allow that. As well as cover all three of us with killer medical insurance, give me another 401K (with company match), and let me be home more instead of spending my baby's early childhood in gridlock on I-5.

We are one step closer! It's in God's hands now! :)
