I got a job offer yesterday and of course I told them yes. It's not to far away so I get to commute until my oldest son gets out of the first grade. It's in Freeport about 50 miles southwest of here. I'll probably live in Lake Jackson, when I do move and no more Houston! I can't stand living here way to many people, horrible traffic and what ever else comes with living in an area with 3 million people. I lived in Lake Jackson before, years ago back in the early 90's, it's an area of about 50k when you add in Clute, Surfside, Freeport, and other little communities. The wife and I are pretty excited about moving there.
The job is awesome. The facility is only a couple of years old and the company is treats employees very well. Since I have 15+ years experience they brought me in at 13 years time in service which gives me 4 weeks of paid vacation, that's a big WOW! That's on top of 10 holidays, and 10 sick days. After I work 7 years that gives me 20 time in service and I get a fifth week of vacation. The job is also a 4 10 schedule Monday through Thursday.
Now I have the dreaded job of putting in my notice at my current job. My boss is going to freak out.
