Starting new job tomorrow. Wish me luck.

I'm starting the new year with a new job in a new location under the same organization. The work is familiar but I will be starting a new routine with a new group of coworkers in a new setting, so I can't help but have a few butterflies at the moment. The greatest upside, besides the increased pay, will be getting to stay in the City saving an $8 daily BART roundtrip. Anyway, good luck to everyone else in 2017.

Esp. saving $40.0 a week on BART...gosh, that's $160.00 a month...I am surprised anyone can afford it these days.

I had an interview just before Christmas that was very positive, hopefully they will call back soon.

Glad to see someone getting back in the workforce!

I've been back in the workforce for a few years but I was pulling in less than I earned prior to 2010 and I'm finally back to where I was. Nothing I can do about the opportunities lost over six years but at least the sun is rising.
