Promoted!
That's right, I've joined the dark side (you know management). Monday I start my managemental training. My 'interview' today went something like this:
Boss: You're interested?
Me: Sure.
Boss: Ok, cool.
Oh, and I'll get health insurance too, woot. I'll have to start working 50 hours a week. I realize that's not as grueling as a lot of other people's schedules, but I'm doing about 35 right now, and that has definately spoiled me. And, of course, more money. The real reason, a 30% increase in pay. Don't get excited, I don't make that much to start with. This is exciting because I'll be able to pay stuff off much sooner, but I think the extra from that first check is going to sponser a little shopping trip.
Cuz, you know, I need new clothes.
P.S. A New Story is up and new comic strips starting here.

Congrats!
So, your company now pays for your health insurance?
Cool.
I gots ta pay for my own or else I am reliant on our public health system... *shudder* ... not that having the private health cover necessarily means things are that much better.
Anyway, nuf about me - CONGRATS to you, Winter, a season of management!
Oh and have a happy Easter.

Fifty hours a week? Man, that's like ten hours a day. You'll end up all weird and pale like Lucy.

Steve - shut up :)
MissE - Thanks! I'm not sure what the details are on the health insurance, might be an 80/20 kind of thing, but it's better than nothing. Hope you have a good Easter too.
Mark - Hey, don't pick on Lucy. ;) Besides, aren't you kind of on the pale side too?

Congrats on the promotion. I hope you don't have too many hopes for your first born, since they'll be taking that from you.
Oh, and you should buy me a drink since you're going to be having so much more extra cash. =P (j/k of course. Unless you really want to.)

Julia - Thanks! (I guess)
Well I think normally you would buy me a drink, but whatever. As soon as I get that first big check I will buy a round for us! :)
