Had a job interview today

I think it went well, but won't know anything for a month, maybe more. Gov't position, which is why it will be so long before finding anything out. Should start on Aug 31st, if selected and it will pay about 2-3k more than I'm making now, with the benefit of gov't pension, benefits, etc. It would also get me back to a normal work week, which will have it's pros and cons, but at least it's in my home town and I won't have a 1.5 hour drive to work.

Im with you on the waiting for govt jobs. Thats all Ive been applying for and just started hearing back from a few after about a month or two for each. Of course mine would more than double my income since I still work retail for the time being...

Having just started a Gov't job 6 weeks ago...I can tell you that it is GREAT. And I took a 21% pay raise over TV news.

Yeah. Im also working on a government position, right now Im in the security clearance phase which means I might start working in August or September.

Ah, the start of the gov't process. Loads of paperwork to fill out and had to go get fingerprinted and get pic taken for id. Closest location to get it done was an hour away. I was there for a whopping 15 minutes.
