finallyso, yes. after much anticipation (and 3 inquiring calls from my mother in the last 20 hours), it's finally happened. i have an actual job offer. in writing. right here in my hot little hands.
i told my boss. he's "talking to people," to see if a reasonable offer can be made to entice me to stay. i really have no idea what they will say. people don't get 14% raises around here very often, if ever (unless they're those people who make tons of money for doing almost nothing; those kind of people seem to get whatever it is they want), but...dare i say it?...i deserve it. and my skills, experience, work ethic, attention to detail, and commitment to serving my clients—not to mention my wit, charm, intrigue, and endless supply of smarties—will be impossible difficult to replace.
i like that it's temporarily out of my hands...i.e., that i can't really make any decisions until i find out what (if anything) they're willing to do to make me stay.
we shall see....
