That is so great for your DH!!! Hope it keeps going well!
About my Dh.
DH has lots of thinking to do. This is a job for Union Pacific Railroad. IT is a very good paying job, Dh was very impressed with their insurance and with all of the job perks. We would even get benifits when Dh retires for me! Even though I have not worked in a while! BUT....
Before the interview started they told them lots of things that are a big but! Dh would always have to keep a backpack with three days worth of clothes with him and could have to leave at a moments notice. Because he is new he also could get tranfered. The job he applied for is in Houston just an hour away from our home, but if a senior person who is working in say Corpus wants to come back to Houston then he has the senority to do that and we would have to move. You are also on call 24/7 and have to report to work within 1 hour. Because of senority you will most likely work the holidays your first few years there.
It is alot to think about. The pay rate is about 8,ooo more a year that dh makes now, but the potential to make as much as 20, 000 more in just five years is a big possibility!
Because he passed the screening process he has the option of going to the next interview in 6 months. It really has to be Dh's descision though, it would be him that has to travel so much. He says he thinks he wants to try it though so I will have to wait and see!
