From Contractor, to FTE
Well, my six-month contract at work was set to expire on December 11th, and I'm pleased to report that Lash Group presented me with a formal offer of employment today, and I've accepted their offer. Tomorrow morning I get to go pee in a little cup at the lab to confirm that I don't have a raging crack habit, as a condition of employment. I'm really enjoying the work that I'm doing, the free lattes from the Flavia machine, and the people I work with, so I'm very happy about the offer.
In actuality, I've been pretty much ruined for employment anywhere else. The company was ranked one the best companies to work for in Charlotte this year, the perks are great, and my bosses are super fantastic. I am truly blessed.
Best of all, the company just made the decision to adopt a casual dress code, so I get to wear jeans to work every day (except for the days when I'm wearing pajamas, 'cause I get to work from home two days a week). Woo Hoo!
