New Job!

Well, it is official. Tyler got a new Job! He told his current employer today so now we can spread the word! About 9 months ago, Tyler applied for a student internship job at Hill Air Force Base in their contracting department. He interviewed and we never heard anything from it, until a month ago. They called him for another interview and 2 weeks later offered him the job. CRAZY! It was exactly what we were looking for 9 months ago, flexible with school, lots of potential. And it still is what we are looking for, but since graduation is in May it isn't as perfect as it once was. They have a step wage increase program and as Tyler works there he gets a step by step wage increase. It is going to take a while for us to be where we would like to be after graduation, but there are so many other benefits to working for Hill. Great medical benefits, vacation/sick days, every single holiday off (-it's the government!), they pay Tyler 3 hours a week to exercise (he is really excited about that), and pay for one class of school and work with his school schedule. And there is a lot of opportunity for growth and advancement. He is excited to see the contracting side of business and to do something new.
His first day is January 7, 2008 What a new year it is going to be! Congrats Tyler!

WOw, that sounds like a perfect job. And step by step pay increase, bring it on, that is awesome. I have heard that the benefits there are the best, good job Tyler. And being paid to work out, maybe thats what I need because nothing else is working. I am so happy for you.
