Question Wish me luck

On Friday a friend sent me an email about a long term, full time writing job, in Nova Scotia Canada, half a continent away from me.
It's not great, but it's steady pay, gets me and my daughter out if my parents place (me first, I'll have to get settled before she comes so about a month or so living alone) and I'd still have lots of time to write other things. Sent him my updated resume today, and he'll hand it in personally to HR tomorrow.
So yeah, if people could cross their fingers for me, I'd appreciate it. This Beats the hell out of the crappy one time writing assignments I've been doing.

Good luck, Domo. Hope everything works out how you hope it does.

Good Luck...

Best of luck.

Thanks everyone. Not sure when I'll hear back from the place, but hopefully soon.

Should I have sent them Tink's stories as part of your resume?

Can't hurt. She's cute enough to win over most people.

Good Luck! At the very least, I hear that Nova Scotia is lovely, especially in the Spring

Best of luck - I've got my fingers crossed for you.

Thank you both.
Nova Scotia is beautiful, not quite enough thick forests, but the ocean will be interesting. And it's a small town, so I'll like that part. Only problem is the town of 6500 people has the highest teen pregnancy rate in Canada. So I'll have to make sure my daughter and I are gone shortly after she hits puberty, or that she's a lesbian. Either is good with me.

*Wishing you luck* + *Finger crossed!*

I'll wish you luck and offer some prayers for you at the same time. Sounds like a great opportunity, so I hope everything works out well for you and the little one.

Thanks guys. My resume was handed in this afternoon, so I should find out soon-ish.

Good luck, and if you need, I'll summon seal team 6 to break heads. Seal team 6, now made with 40% more real seals!

Let me slip in late with an helping of luck, the good stuff, of course.

Best of luck, and I hope that first month will be bearable!

Well good is they sent me an email asking me to call them yesterday. Eight calls, two messages yesterday, one call and one message this morning and no answer.

Nagrij I may take you up on the seal team offer, but these are maritimers they club and eat seals for breakfast.

I hope all the best. After all you have plenty of talent for several writers. *Crosses fingers* Good luck hun.

Wishing you all good things for a fresh start and easy transition.

Thank you. Still trying to get n touch with the person. I wonder if he's died..

Well in that case, Domo, seal team 6 won't work.

Guess we'll go with option B, and the penguins of the revolution! No one expects the penguin inquisition!

That's quite possible. My dad had to redo a job interview a few months ago because the person who interviewed him had a heart attack.

That would suck.
My friend is looking into whats going on from his end, which isn't actually anywhere near the place I'd be working so hopefully by the end of this week things will be worked out.

It's not necessarily even something fatal. I had a case where the person who interviewed me quit and my paperwork got lost in the shuffle. On a side note, there was a funny tale on The Daily WTF about an interviewee who actually convinced his interviewer to quit. Basically, he recognized that the guy who was interviewing him was highly dissatisfied and pointed out as much. The next day, he got a nice email from the interviewer saying that he was right, and he'd quit."
