The Offer

Hi Crystal,

Deborah shares our impression and also thinks you would be a great addition to the team. So, we would be thrilled to offer you this position. I would like to set up a time to meet with you on Monday to talk about the details. Do you have any time on Monday for a meeting?

My cell phone is BLAH. I am not available this evening but will be able to take a call on Saturday if you would like to set up a meeting time.

I look forward to speaking with you.

With respect,


Barbara Blah
Director of Admin
Treehouse

So after my 3:00 interview I picked up HG at DHQ and we went to the Japanese dollar store. I got a pan, stir-fry pan, oblong pan, colander, and a myriad of other items that I didn't need for about $15 total. It was awesome. I also got my cornicopia of drugs for my surgery. After that I dropped HG off and met Dane at Bamboo Garden for dinner. While I was waiting I picked up some material on veganism and animal rights and by the time Dane got there I was in tears with the torture of animals. We ordered our food (Bamboo Garden is a 100% vegan restaurant) and talked about our days and I was so happy that Dane was willing to at least try it out. But it still hurt me about the pictures and tutorials I read about the animals. When we got home we went upstairs and layed out all the information I had on both Treehouse and Friends of Youth (who has not gotten back with me but I know that they are still checking my references) and discovered the differences btwx the two companies. It boils down to TH being more education and advocacy based and FOY being more care/treatment/prevention based. So the decision lied in what I want to do, social work or legislative. As anyone who knows me will answer, I'm more interested in law and legislation. That and the general environments and culture of the companies, I've leaned more towards TH.

After discussing work I started getting upstet about animal cruelty and talking to Dane about the perils of eating meat and for extra emphasis I decided to bring up Peta's new investigation on PetSmart and the hampster/gerbil abuse. After reviewing the pictures and video with him I decided to check my email. Low and behold there was the email above. I'm shocked beyond words. Dane is so happy and proud. My parents are proud. RBMBA is proud. HG is happy. It has yet to hit me yet because now I have a serious responsibilty to perform. I have to call the Director tomorrow to schedule a meeting for Monday (my b-day). I think I will accept this job over the FOY job (should I even be offered that job). I will work out the details on Monday, but I don't think I will hand in my resignation till I get back from sick leave at the end of February.

I'm sad to leave the Army. I really am. I don't want to leave HG. I don't want to leave my units. But I can't work for LD and the Swede. I would have gone to the ends of the Earth for RBMBA. But no one else. ESPECIALLY LD!!! And THE SWEDE!!!!! Never. They don't deserve me. I refuse to make them look good. Dicks. NOPE. I'm leaving. Good riddens you fools. Treat RBMBA like that after TEN F*CKING YEARS?!?!?!!?? See ya. Good night. Bye. I still feel bad for my units that have nothing to do with this. :-( But TSA had a choice. They could have kept me. Dicks.

What should my resignation say?
