I can has job!!
I have accepted a position as the administrative assistant/office manager at Good Steward Building Management in Chicago, starting Monday. GSBM specializes in condo buildings of 20-100 units.
It was started by the guy and his wife out of their home, but they have grown to the point where they need a real office, and she wants to stay home with the kids more, and their current p/t assistant is moving out of state. The signs just went up at the office, the phone and networking wiring was being laid yesterday and today.
Basically, they were looking for a me. They need someone to run the office, do AP/AR, file all the paper trails, deal with condo boards, take work orders, handle the ramp-up to the new web portal software, and generally do pretty much everything I've done before - just on a Mac instead of a PC.
It starts out at only 32 hours a week but is anticipated to go full-time with medical after 4 months. Not too thrilled about that, but they had originally planned a much longer ramp-up period. I had expressed my concerns about medical at the interview, and they basically met me halfway so I can't complain too much. I'll be working M-Th generally 9-5.
Honestly, I'm just looking forward to getting off the couch, and this should allow me to get some bills paid and get the bankruptcy case funded and started relatively soon.
