Funny how things work when you least expect them to.

The other day I was just telling FI that I really need a new job. I love the job I have, don't get me wrong. But I've been there for four years and just don't see myself moving up any time soon. It's not that I don't want it, it's that I don't feel I'm going to get picked over anyone else for the next up position. It's frustrating because I know I work my ass off and I just don't feel as appreciated as I know I could be (or should be).

Anyways, one of our regular customers came through drive through today (I work at a coffee shop) and asked me how my schooling is going. He's really friendly and so am I so we've chatted about weekends and me getting married and school and such before. I told him how it's been going lately and that I'm sad for class to be ending this summer but that I won't be going back in the fall due to the wedding and taking time of. He then told me that there is an opening available at his job. I was curious why he was telling me this but then he told me that his secretary would be leaving him in Dec/Jan and while he was sad to let her go, that I have an amazing personality. He indicated that he would like for me to be on his team and gave me his business card.

I can't stop thinking about it. This customer is extremely sweet and I've never ever seen him cranky before. He works for a local insurance agency. I've never had really any other job besides this one and a waitressing job for a few months so working in an office would be interesting. But I can type very fast (timed myself online before, too) and I'm sure I could learn Excel fast too if I needed it. If it pays near this job now, I want to consider it. Even if it doesn't offer insurance by then I would be married so I could just go on FI's.

What do you think? Sound like a good idea?

Still thinking about it an how less stressful it might be!

Thank all of you ladies for the encouragement to at least try and go for it

The insurance agency is located all over the midwest and they have a website so I know they are legit.

That sounds awesome!!!  Congrats!!  Definitely follow up and don't hesitate to ask specifics about what you'd be responsible for, what they're looking for, etc.  It also wouldn't hurt to call the Better Business Bureau just to be safe.  Even if it's a legit company, I would want to be sure it's also reputable and that no major complaints are on file, etc.  Can't hurt!!  Do you know anyone who has insurance through them and could give you an idea of what they think?
