Convergence?

Feedback from the Friday interview is that the Chicago company wants to consider me at a higher level than the job I interviewed for. It will be a week or so before they figure out what that is.

The most recent entry into the job sweepstakes :) (from Atlanta) likes my resume' but will need a week or so before they can start interviewing. They have to deal with the incumbent hiring manager and move her into another role first.

So, it looks like with my trip to New England on the 18th, that perhaps by then I will know more on these other two opportunities and maybe have all of them come to a head at once. Wouldn't that be nice? Of course, that happened once before, and the result was that everyone said no... except one who said "uh, just a minute... let me think about this some more." And they're still thinking...

At dinner we discussed: do you think that we are supposed to be doing something else completely? Or that there is something that we're just waiting for to happen that will make everything clear? Yeah, it feels that way sometimes. What is it, anyway? What are we waiting on? It's like when you are sailing along on the freeway and you hit an inexplicable traffic jam. You wonder... what's up ahead that's stalling everything? And you don't know, until you get there.

Some notes on Cobra. You can sign up yet not pay for 90 days. At the 89th day or so you can then pay. If you don't need to go to a Dr, etc this could save $'s if you get a job and new benefits start right away. Essentially you have some many days before you sign up for Cobra, so you wait until close to the last day. Then you sign up but don't pay because you have so many days before you have to pay. Turns out if you do it right you can wait up to 90 days to decide. If you do need health coverage you simply pay, it's retroactive. Just a thought to save $'s. And some companies will accept you on their plan without continuous insurance. Check it out. Chuck from down south.
