After 3 months of searching, the VP of our cost center finally gave me the words I have been waiting to hear..."Sometimes you get what you want, congratulations you're the new Controller". I almost lost it, because over the weekend I thought for sure I lost the position because a small typo I made on a schedule that got up to the CAO and VP of Ops and out external auditors.

Now, just to see what the raise is going to be......

The fact that you made a typo just proved to them you're a numbers person, not a words person.

Now if the typo was with the numbers... ;)

edit: oops, forgot to say CONGRATS!

So are you a 360 controller, PS3 controller, or Wii controller? Perhaps just the tried and true mouse+keyboard?


J/K Congrats!

Were you sort of bitter that he didn't choose you first or did you understand it was just part of the process? Congrats!
