I currently work for a regional public accounting firm, and I wanted out of this firm for various reasons. I've been applying to several different positions, including one of the largest public accounting firms in the country. That is the job I wanted most.

I interviewed with them on Wednesday, and later that evening, I sent a thank you email to the two senior managers, and the partner that interviewed me. I personally got an email back this morning from the partner saying that I will hear from them soon. One of the internal recruiters just called me and offered me a position.

The salary is a lot more than what I make now, and they're also giving me a sign-on bonus.

This made my weekend! I know that the work will be harder and the hours will be longer since it's a much bigger firm, but to have it on my resume and to be a part of the company will do wonders for my career.

I had to tell someone. I dont want to tell me coworkers, and my girlfriend is at work.

Not sure why, but when I read "shaking with excitement" I thought of the little girl from Little Miss Sunshine when she gets the call from the Sunshine people.

Big congrats though, that's huge news I'm sure! Drink a few :beer: or :wine: this weekend.

Getting hired is amazing. I've only had 1 job (this past summer), but I worked full days and got paid for my time. Only $8 an hour, but I have no expenses, Woo hoo! I bought the monitor I'm staring at now with that money (LOVE IT)! Gotta love making more money.

Congrats! I know you wanted out of the job...

Going down by the harbor, you now get to be part of Homicide: Life on the Street.
Tell Detective Munch I said hi.

Grats, man!

You weren't promoted by a few gay friends, were you? LOL!

I dont have any gay friends, but I have no problem hanging out with them. A couple years ago, I went out to a gay bar/club with a few straight friends and a few gay friends. I had a decent time.

Congrats man! So when/where are you celebrating? I need a list of good nightspots in B'more. My standard date package of dinner at Black Olive and cappuccino/cannoli at Vaccaro's is wearing thin! Need to know a good place for drinks where I won't be surrounded by fratboys/sorostitutes and where I won't get shot.

HEY! when are you going to plan that baltimore/dc meetup? lol we've been flirting with the idea now for more than a year!!! :D

I still go smoke shisha every weekend. The place I was going to "Three Kings" is now closed. We've been going to this other hookah lounge in federal hill called "Zeeba lounge". It's a really nice place, and they have a BYOB poilcy. My friends and I went there on Saturday night. We shared a bottle of Pinot Noir, smoked some shisha, and watched the belly dancer perform. I definetly recommend that place.

I celebrated earlier that night with my gf. We went out to Ruth's Chris downtown.
