Wahaaay!!! Congrats!
I'm going through the interview process myself at the moment, had one today and got called back for a second one Monday at 9.00...... not sure if I can get up that early any more! Got another at 5.00, it'll be like working a full day!!!!
Mind you.... about time, I've been applying for just about anything for a month!!!!!!!

Yay! Congratulations Jan I used to do the early shift when I worked at hotels and that 5am awakening is pretty tough but finishing at 2.30pm make's it worth it.

Congratulations Jan! Do you mind if I ask where you looked for jobs?
I am currently in NYC on a H1B but am hating my job right now.

Well done Jan. 5am - best part of the day (or so I'm told.... ).
Hope you've been practising your early happy face - tough crowd at that time in the morning.
Seen 5am a few times this week with our baby - its actually cold in Houston at that time in the morning too, but not down to -3c. More like 60f, whatever that is in proper money. Yeah OK, thats a balmy summer day in the UK, but its chuffing cold here!
Best of luck

Firstly an apology .... it seems its Doc Scrumpy who's the cheeky git ..... sorry Patrick
and once again thanks for all your wishes
Suzygirl i got this job as a total fluke, I had a list of possibles from the help wanted section of our local paper and was doing the rounds with my resume when I got talking to a nice old fella in a grocery store, he said if youre looking for a job and dont mind early starts go talk to so and so at the Hampton Inn up the road .. so I did, got offered the job right there and then !!!
So here I am once again reading the forum at silly o clock getting ready to run off to work.

I don't know who's hurt the most by the comparison, Patrick or me.
