I waited all Summer to say that. Can't really say with complete comfort that the situation is gone however... 3 months will tell the tale I suppose.
Going to be starting a 3 month contract with hire option at a health care system in Battle Creek called Summit Pointe.
After a little negotiation yesterday, the deal was closed. Had a another interviiew the same day up in flint for sa speed shop called Hardcore Racing. It had the same sunds of the old company when I heard phrases like "we work hard and play hard." and my favorite of the day was "You will be worth whatever you can contribute to our company." I used to believe that a few years ago, but after a few hard knocks, I know that statement is a bit subjective. Oh well... The new job starts Monday am, and another guy from the recruiter is coming in as well for the same duration. It is going to be a whole new career in a few days. This is going to help me to let go of some old bitterness that I harbored way too long.
After being let down by a large company that I had no future at, leaving, then going to a small company that allowed you to wear as many 'hats' as you could wear, where you realized that after a few too many hats, your hat rack wasn't worth it, leaving to go back to a large company, 150 users. Exciting, scary, but that's exactly how I felt when I got to my last job. I love the challenge. Hope they like me even more in 3 months when its the moment of truth and hiring is an option. Just gotta do my best, day by day. Everything works out in the end.
