[QUOTE="klmno, post: 409352, member: 3699"] I do that, too Suz- when the ball is in my court - and I've taken jobs for lower pay because of feeling like it was a better fit and more comfortable situation all the way around. But I had been unemployed, basicly, for 18 mos and was less than 1 week away from homelessness- literally- when this guy called and offered me the job. He had called about a week earlier for an interview. He seemed a little weird then and the way he arranged the interview unnerved me a little so I asked people from the board for input. A couple of long-standing members here sent me phone numbers by PM and I gave them details just so someone might be able to call cops if the guy turned out to be a psycho. LOL! So all in all, I'm glad I have the job and am very thankful for an opportunity to be back in the workforce. But obviously, this isn't a good fit and I'll keep looking for something else. I'm still staying a little low on that until I find out if this clearance will go thru. I'm not holding my breath but I really need to figure out how I want to proceed, career-wise, from here and what type of agency or company I'd like to work for and what opportunity is or isn't there. It's a streatch, I know, but I have faith. [/QUOTE]
