My meeting went well today. I must admit. I would like this to work out. Honestly, it's scares me to say this but it's true. The truth is I would actually like working here full time. I would like to begin leading a relatively normal life again. Maybe make a bit more money and gain a lot of skills. The person I met with help me ease my fears regarding the company. Yes, we are start up company and there is a lot of risk but the owners of the company have already done this once. They last company they had started with 4 people in a one room office (including the president) and by the time they sold it a couple of years ago there were 3500 employees. They sold the company for 15 million dollars.
These two companies are their next project. It makes sense that I would be part of a start up company. Especially a start up company in the education field. A part of me feels like I should be here. I feel like I'm almost meant to be here. However, there are many things that I thought were meant to be that never amounted to anything so I'm nervous. I don't actually have this job yet. Not at all. I have still yet to meet the owner of the company. He will be coming to visit in January. What if he doesn't feel like I'm worth it. He is a businessman after all. He'll be looking at the bottom line.
There's also that terrible contract with the temp agency. The company is under a contract with my temp agency that they pay 40% of my first year's salary. That's nuts. Sure I would not have found this place without the temp agency but I think it's pretty crappy that if I like the job and the people at the job like me, they have to pay 40% of what they give me. That means that if they pay me $40K (I wish), they are actually paying close to $70K. Not cool. Not cool at all. I get that's how they make their money and all but seriously.
Ah well. I just have to wait and see. I've got another long day ahead of me tomorrow but then it's Christmas. My gosh, how is it already Christmas?
