My Boyfriend's Back!

I have a few bits of news from today.

1. Grant came to visit me today! It is our 2 year and 8 month anniversary today. We went out to eat a Texas Roadhouse. mmm! I am so glad he is here with me. I miss him so much each time we are apart. However, the times apart make the times together so special!

2. I interviewed at the PGA TOUR today. It was apprentice style interviewing. I left Gainesville at 6:15 AM and arrived at the PGA TOUR offices at 8:50 for my 9 AM interview. I was met by the Director of Marketing. I met with him in his office and learned that he was a fellow Cubs fan. It was nice to find some common ground! After spending about 15 minutes or so with him I was escorted to the VP of Marketing and left there to interview with her. We chatted for about 15-20 minutes. I learned more about many aspects of PGA TOUR marketing and my specific job. Then, I was escorted to the Marketing Assitant. I met with her for about 15 minutes and spoke about the specifics of my potential job and about SEC sports. She is an Auburn Alum. I had to tell her that we swept them in baseball last weekend. She then walked me to the director of HR's office. We spoke about start dates and end dates and where to go from there. He told me that he would either call or email me as soon as he knew if I would have the job.

So I drove back to Gainesville where I was met by Grant :). I was nervously checking my email all afternoon. At 5:30 I pretty much thought that I would not hear today and I would have to wait until tomorrow. Grant and I left to go to dinner. In the car my phone rang...and it was the PGA TOUR. I was excited to see that it was them! I rationalized earlier that if I got a phone call it was a 'you're hired' and if it was an email it would be 'you're fired.' The director of HR was on the other end. We chatted for a few minutes. Then, he told me that the decision was unanimous and that I was hired. I am so excited!!! Along with the position comes compensation and free golf all summer at TPC Sawgrass!! My brothers are very jealous I am sure. So, I figure I need to begin working on my golf game. I think I will start by making contact off the tee.

I cannot wait to start working. This is going to be a great summer!

Becky :)
