Status Update

Jon had an interview today with Huntington Bank, here in Central Ohio. The interview went very well. Very well, meaning he is extremely likely to get an offer. Fairly quickly. However, and to us it’s a BIG HOWEVER, it is NOT a job he would enjoy in the least. From what he told me, it would be a lot of testing, a lot of no real schedule, working at the mercy of his job year round. A lot of 12-15 hour days. Any of you who know my husband know he would HATE that. It is a good PAYING job…but I’m not so sure that convinces us this job is a good thing.

Meanwhile, we are supposed to hear something one way or another from First Citizens (Raleigh job) tomorrow. Please, pray they make us a reasonable offer. At this point, a lot of money won’t sway us. Jon would like his job at First Citizens…and he’s pretty sure he would be unhappy in the one here. Which makes our decision pretty easy, if you ask me. If First Citizens offers us enough that we think we can afford the move and make it once we’re there, loss or not, we are going. Jon will only take the job at Huntington if he has too. They already told him that if FC makes an offer, they want an opportunity to counter offer…but I don’t really think it matters how much they offer…unless FC just really doesn’t come through. I don’t want him to take a job he would hate, unless it’s the only job, obviously. Then I suppose we will just bide our time.

So, I should have more news tomorrow…and while you’re waiting,

O-H !!!!!!!

  1. If he has to take the Huntington job, look at it as an opportunity to pay down the house, save down payment money, and move on your own terms. Either way, it's very good news.

    Love, Dad
