Hi Ladies,
I don't know if you remember but I lost my main part time job just over a month ago when the company closed down. I've been applying like crazy to all sorts of jobs since then and have gone on a couple interviews, and finally got a job offer today!
I'll be a barista in a coffee house, which is fine, the only thing that sucks is that I'll be making almost $4 less per hour then I was (not that I'd expect to be paid what I was making as Web Dev as a barista, but still - sucks). I also won't be able to work quite as much as I'd like, since they give part timers insurance and I need to stay below the hour cap so I can stay on DH's insurance (he works for the school district and if I'm offered insurance elsewhere I am required to take it).
Besides those minor things though - such a relief!!

Congrats on the new job! I have often said that if I was without a job and couldn't get one in my field, I would love to be a barista. I think I'm addicted to coffee, but it still looks fun to me. Can't wait to hear an update on how you like it
Great news even if it is less than you were making!
