Today, after months of waiting and mounting expectations, I have finally placed my signature on a genuine employment contract.

I’m In.
I am officially welcome into corporate Hell. And I couldn’t be more thrilled.

Now for Phase 2:
OPERATION *SAVE SOME CASH AND GET THE HELL OUT OF THAT HOUSE A.S.A.P.*

It took me completely by surprise, since I was expecting a couple of more interviews, but the wait was totally worth it, especially after the unnecessary mental stress I put myself through yesterday.
It turns out that at the monthly general meeting, they usually give the names of every new employee that is added to the company, and it surprised me greatly that, among the new freelancers and part-timers, my name was nowhere to be heard. This irked me greatly and caused a great deal of paranoia to start building up within me. What if I didn’t get the job? what if they decide to leave the position empty and downsize? we are in economic distress, after all. What if I did something horribly wrong along the way? What if it was something I didn’t do?
That all went through my head as I heard the endless lecture and magnanimously boring slideshow.
But then again…
- I already know the ropes around here
- After the girl that was in my position left, I was left as the most experienced person in the department (when it comes to the new, forcefully imposed and slightly incompetent design program that is, because, basically, I’m still a n00b.)
- They sure as hell are NOT going through the hardships of training a new employee.
- I made sure to cover all bases whenever I was needed.
Goddamn, if they wouldn’t have picked me, that would have been such a slap in the face, It wouldn’t even be funny. I swear that if my temp contract was still standing if that had happenned, I would have brought the resignation letter the day after. But thank the Pleiades, that wasn’t the case. I have a cubicle! Joy!!!! I can finally bring and display my Hummel figurines!!
Hehe… actually I want to bring my satanic-looking Spawn action figures, but that would be a bit over the top.

Anyway, hooray for me! And hooray for this place for acknowledging such a fine piece of work as miself.

*cough! hack*

See ya around… Gotta tell my b/f, he still doesn’t know (tee-hee!)

That means we have to… celebrate.
