My new job...

I just wanted to let you all know that I got offered a new job within ConAgra today. I have been stressing (minimal IBS...) for about two weeks now. I applied, on a whim, for this "Sales Operations Analyst" on the 10th...HR called me on the 16th...1st interview on the 17th (told me it would be 2 weeks until I heard back from her)...2nd interview on the 19th (please note that this is only 2 DAYS later, not 2 weeks)...my 3rd interview today at 12:30 with the VP of sales (!!!craping my pants!!!)...and at 2:00 this afternoon I had an offer in front of me. Did I already say that I was CRAPPING MY PANTS. And again, this was all on a whim, so I wasn't expecting anything but to get my name out there, and look where that got me. This new job is three levels higher than where I am now, but the offer was really nice and I start full time on the 20th (downtown on campus). Talk about turn around.
I will be sad to leave my current position (as an expert) to start something so foreign to me...but I guess that is what change and progress is all about.
My current boss says "In the midst of all of this stress and change, now you will get pregnant". I say BRING IT ON!
