I spoke on the phone with an ex-boyfriend that dumped me years ago. After I told him about all my travels, great jobs, learning to fly, skydive, etc. I know I got my revenge.

Good luck on your new life.

I'm so happy for you!

I had a theory when job-hunting.... if you accept one job offer, an even better one will come along!

It is all going to work out for you!

If so, the minimum hourly wage in Arizona in August of 2013 is $7.80 an hour, not $7.35 an hour. Just some DU info for you. I am extremely happy for you, but my DU gut just says I needed to check things out.

Arizona employers may not pay you under $7.80 per hour unless you or your occupation are specifically exempt from the minimum wage under state or federal law.

All Arizona employers must display an approved Arizona minimum wage poster in a prominent place to inform employees about the minimum wage and their worker's rights under Arizona labor law.
