I received my offer letter, for my position that is being outsourced, this past Saturday. They are offering me $6,400 more a year for the same job, with an opportunity of a 5% bonus at the end of every year!~:D

My DH kept telling me it might not be a bad thing and he was right. The holiday pay and salary is better at the new company.

Thanks for all of your prayer and support during this emotional time for me. I am so glad I have you all as my "family!"
 
Congratulations!
 
I am so happy for you Laurie. We all knew with God's help everything would work out for the best.
