.... and it really seemed to go well! .... he was ex Navy, and I am ex Coast Guard.... so after we had the fist fight it went pretty good

.... kidding of course.... although I did flatten his tires in the parking lot... hope he didn't see me

I did say "I was a Chief Boatswains Mate, so being ex Navy you know what I am capable of" and he said "I sure do" .... so that is a good thing.... unless a Chief Boatswains Mate flattened his tires once .... hehehe.....

He said, and I quote "I am making you a tentative offer now, but it still has to go through HR"

I am pretty sure that is a good thng... isn't it??

Will be waiting for the call now.....

I'll say a prayer and keep my fingers crossed for you Marc.
My husband is ex Navy, my son ex Marine and my SIL is Army so I know how those conversations go!

Good Luck!
Melissa

Thanks Melissa....

Husband and Son... Navy and Marine ! .... what a combo

When I would be talking to Marines, I used to say "You know what the Marines and Coast Guard have in common?" .... they were or course thinking "not a thing!" .... and I would say "They both hate the Navy" ... heheh... never failed to get a chuckle....

Oooooo..hate to count the chickens before they all hatch, but I am knocking wood, turning over a glass and all those other good things to keep hope alive.   Cos I really hope you get this job!!!  Fingers crossed for you, chanting and saying prayers.

A tentative offer sure sounds like a good thing to me!  Now you just have to go through the usual HR reference and background check and stuff like that, I guess.

 Keeping my fingers crossed.  Wouldn't a job be a good Christmas present?
