Here's hoping...
I am a little hesitant to say anything about this because I don't want to jinx it, but I'm so excited I want to tell someone!
Scott has been working at the same job for nearly a year now. He was placed there by a temp agency, and despite numerous promises for full-time placement and promotion, nothing has happened yet. I am so tired of Scott working these temp jobs with no benefits. Fortunately he is a veteran so his health insurance is covered, but the man is nearly 37 years old and has no retirement plan!
He got a call today from the temp agency, the supervisor there has been monitoring a job opening at another plant. Evidently they are trying to promote internally so she has been watching it to see if it goes external. Today she spoke to the hiring manager there and told him she had an applicant that they might be interested in, and he asked her to fax Scott's resume over. He called her back almost immediately to get Scott's contact number so he could give him a call.
So far he has not called, but I am very hopeful about this. His temp agency has gotten very good reviews from his current supervisors, so they would be in a good position to speak up for him. Anyone reading this, please think good thoughts.
And on the "I'm Denying My Baby is Growing Up" front - Ian is moving up to the three year old room in May. :( When we placed him at this daycare they told us it would probably be this summer before they had an opening to put him in the threes room, and that was fine with me. He loves his two year old room - they have this cool fort with steps and his teachers are so great. But as it turns out they are preparing a group of about six of them to move up together (so that is good, since he won't be alone). I don't know why I thought that he would stay in the twos room forever.
Everytime something like this happens I hear my uterus knock.
