After two months of interviews and paperwork, the start date for my new job is finally confirmed and my two weeks' notice is in! Here's to a nice salary bump and much better vacation/benefits, not to mention working on exciting new things!

I bet you just moved from one big 3 company to another.

I did that a little over a year ago, left my retail job to my new cushy corporate gig. I couldn't be happier. Congratulations!

Mayyyyyybe. I think we all know the one I left, but I don't want to expand on where I'm going and what I'm doing ;)

Thanks :) and in this case, it's one large corporation to another. The offer was so good I didn't even have to negotiate, and I don't think my current place will be able to counter.

So the real question here is can you now buy that Cuda with the salary bump?? I hope so! And congrats!

For me having a 8-4:30 gig with weekends off and a job I literally stop caring about the second my foot hits the pavement outside is worth it.

Well, I don't think I'll be hitting the auctions any time soon, but it will definitely help the Mustang purchase I was planning on this spring :)

Hi five! Good luck to ya on the new job.

Remember, don't accept a counter offer from your current employer if you get one - Always a bad move.

You did check to see that their network doesn't block Jalopnik and Youtube first though, right?

Lol, I'll probably be waaaay too busy for that, and if not, that's what the personal phone is for ;)

So stoked. I have mine all optioned out and ready to order, just waiting until spring because I don't want to buy it just to garage it all winter.

Reminds me of a couple of stickers I saw on cars at LANL. "Yes, I work at the lab. No, I won't tell you what I work on".

Congrats! You should totally use the improved vacation/benefits to go up to that rally in Houghton, Michigan that I heard about...
