Accountant Librarian

You know things have a funny way of working out without us even realizing it. Last week I was minding my own business, more or less, when I get a phone call from Ms. Powell who works at the Seminary’s library asking if I would be interested in coming in for an interview Friday morning. I was stunned; it had been at most 24 hours since I had submitted my name for the position that library was offering. None of the jobs that I had applied for since we have moved to Louisville had called me back that quickly.

So I set up an interview Friday morning at 10 a.m., we get done around 11:30 and around 1:30 of the same day I accepted the position in their Acquisitions and Cataloging department and I started the following Monday. To say the least I am shocked at how fast things have moved. I have worked several days and I am already connecting with the people that work here. Between the people, the environment, the benefits, and the fact that I do not have to drive to work completely makes up for the low pay.

Every job offer that I have taken (and pretty much everyone I have been given) has come within a day or two of the interview, and usually the same day as the interview. Also every job that I have worked at has shaped me and how I view work. I am insanely excited about working with books again after four years since I last worked at Reader's Choice.

So thank you to everyone who has been praying for me to find a job. Once the dust settles from the transition of me coming in and the people that I am replacing leave, I think this will be a great job. Heck, I already think it is a great job. So thank you again, I think God has placed me where he wanted me to be.

And to all my friends and family that I do not see very often, I miss y’all and I am thinking about y’all constantly. (I'm in Kentucky...)
