I'm now employed
I just got a job, I'm so pumped.

It's with the Canadian version of the FCC. I don't start until the middle of January, but I don't care.

I've been un- and underemployed for 3 years.

I now have a job that will take all the experience that I've achieved and will pay me more than I have ever been paid before.

I'm SO relieved.

I almost can't believe it. But I was just at a meeting today.

It's my dream job.

5. Thanks
I was almost resigned to living without work.

Did you find what you wanted?

10. Actually, I am still looking,
but both my husband and I were layed off (different industries, about 6 months apart), and he finally found a decent job (not contract work! Benefits! Security! Vacation!) after about a year and a half of looking. So the immediate pressure is off my family. We can make the mortgage payment, in other words.....

Congratulation to you again...
