The Job is Ours!!

This morning, Ted called the AT&T Director and told him what he felt he was worth ($8000 more than the offer). The AT&T Director then went on to tell Ted about how every job operates within a certain set parameters and then said, what if I were to add $10,000 to the base salary, would you take the job then? Uh....umm....YES!! Anything to the base pay is great!It's guaranteed money. In sales, you love a good base. It's security if the sales don't go well and commissions are low. We are closer to a better chance of making what he did before. That's all we wanted. In the ballpark...and we are there! We are patient enough to grow with AT&T. Charter's offer came in much lower ($10,000 less in base than before)...with the teaser job opening in a few months for a Sales Manager. Ted asked God this morning to make it obvious what he should do. When Charter's offer came in that much lower, he felt this was his sure sign to go to work at AT&T. We still don't know if he will start 1/8 or 1/15, but we can rest assured the rest of the Christmas Break that a job is waiting for him. Phew!

Thanks for your prayers. I'll write more later. Mary wants to be held....again....*sigh*
