gotta list some of the positives so i dont get too bummed out

closer to home
saves about $3 a day in gas ($42 a month with gas at $2 a gallon)
manager actually in the building so its easier for them to notice the extra work I do
more walking at work to other building will make the day go faster
have to learn a new application

...and it started 30 minutes ago... I've been praying for you, man. Let us know how it went. ;)

lol thanks

it went good. It was just the initial screening type of call, asking me my background and info stuff. Its the same band (30) as my old job with Amex and he said theyd have no problem meeting my pay requirements. (maybe I shoulda asked for more!)

He said he was going to forward my resume to the hiring manager and I should know next week If I have a second interview

PM me the name of the hiring manager, I'll see if I know anyone in that group.
