As I was leaving work today, ready to head out into the gorgeous weather that has embraced Chicago, I ran into a few people from my company who work in another department. A department I am known to help out from time to time.
They wanted to let me know that they appreciate the fact that I find time to help them out. And they wanted to know if I wanted to join their department.
I decline, with the caveat that I could be tempted if they could offer me a higher salary.
That's right. I am trying to start an internal bidding war for yours truly.
Here's to hoping it works.

P.S. - Like I said, it is absolutely beautiful outside right now which is one of the main reasons this post is so short. I just poured myself a glass of wine and am headed out to my patio, raccoons and all, to relax after having finished my taxes. Yeah, I know, they are due tomorrow. Which is why I did them today.
Duh...

I did my first gardening of the season and my husband had to drag me inside because it was too dark to see if I was yanking out weeds or perennials.
I hope you get a raise!
You getting a raise=you coming to PA for a Shady Maple dinner. Hope you get the raise!

This is the second Chicago blog I've hit today. First one made me really want a Chicago hot dog, esp. since I've never been there.
Shame on people who have never been to Chicago. They* don't call it the best city in the world for nothing.
* By "they" I mean people with common sense and logic. I think Bee would agree.
Here's hoping they make you an offer you can't refuse.
You are so right about Chicago. I never had the slightest clue until I was there several years ago for a family reunion of sorts.
It's a good omen, this offer from the other group. If nothing else, it proves that you are on more than one radar screen. Don't get in a rush,keep your own counsel, and "breast your cards" my dear. You will do well.

ps: when you have the time I'd love it if you'd stop in and check out my blog. I am no longer a "lurker". ;] https://crazydbashorttrip.wordpress.com/
I would give you a raise if you provided the bacon...
