My persistence with CenturyLink has finally paid off, I've gotten a job offer from them! Have filled out all the online forms and stuff, going for the pee test this afternoon. The ship isn't quite docked yet, but it's definitely in port and pulling into it's berth. Joy oh joy!

Congrats! Good luck with the other evil empire.

(BTW, I quit Comcast last week, so no one gets to blame me for anything Comcast-related any longer.)

It's not the motion of the ocean or the size of the boat but it's weather the captain can keep the ship in port until all the passengers get off.

Don't know why the OP made me think of that.

I thought this was going to be a thread about Fantasy Island.

Congrats and don't go posting dumb stuff on Facebook and get fired before you even start.

Hate to be a killjoy here, but the first thing to do after a period of unemployment is rebuild your emergency fund (3-6 months of living expenses). Then pay down any high interest debt you accrued. Then buy guns. You won't improve your physical security with more guns, but you'll improve your financial security quickly.

Why, you have clout? I've been trying to get back into Telecom since getting laid off in 2012. Was in that biz for 26 years.

Clout?? Not at all. Just one of the folks in our prayer group is someone higher up the food chain, within CL. Not that it matters, but it never hurts.

This will be in the NROC dept., one of the Network Operations teams, not sure of the details yet. My background is in all aspects of Central Office Equipment Installation, from steelwork to installing, testing and troubleshooting damn near any kind of circuit. Predominantly optical carrier and transport. Also CO Tech and route maintenance, for years I maintained 15 remote sites around the state plus our CO in Denver.

Pretty sweet, I hope you like it. It is what I did in the Air Force. I landed my current job and it is pretty awesome is why I didn't stay in the field.

Good Luck! It is always nice to hear good news.

Thanks! Once our finances get more stable, the wife's gonna have Hell keeping me out of the Trading Post here! I've got a hankerin' for a Rossi '92 levergun in .45 Colt, with the 24" octagonal barrel. That's going to be my next gun purchase, prefer used but new is OK too.

Congrats! I got laid off after the merger. Had 9 years in and I got 9 months severance. It was a good deal. Still have a few friends that work there
