Today my youngest got her first professional job!!! Not only did she get a job, she had two companies offer at the same time! The company she chose had not intended to hire until Dec, but they knew they didn't want to miss getting her. They offered less than she first asked for, but they offered extended benefits to make up for the difference. She is well pleased with their offer and they seemed very pleased with her when she accepted their offer.
Wee!!! Such a relief!!
She graduated in May, but had to complete an internship over the summer to complete the requirements. It ended in August, with both parties agreeing that that was NOT the work environment for her. They still acted as a great reference for her. She had been very diligent in applying for jobs, but she was pretty picky about where she applied. She is really excited that this position will allow her to use her Mandarin frequently and may even send her to Shanghai occasionally.
I'm relieved because the starting pay is high enough she will be able to make her student loans and her car payment without great stress. WOOOTTTT!!
Come dance with me!!!

It's always great to see a child become independent. It gets better when they actually read the benefits package and talk about their 401k. It's a proud day indeed.

Yes!!!! Congratulations, she has worked hard and now she is reaping the rewards. Hope the job meets all of her expectations! I can relate to the job joy - my Ds 22 was just hired by our local city as a public works employee. I am soooo relieved that he now has a job with great benefits and a future, and so far he is happy with his work and coworkers.
