Well not exactly. I just
like to quote a Seinfeld episode where Jerry tries to help Babu Bhatt a
Pakistani get some immigration help and really nothing is happening. Watch a clip here.
I did however get a nice recommendation from the Commissioner’s Director of
Auditing for a position at BYUH. It
makes me feel like my dreams aren’t dead after all. Here is the email I was blind copied on today…
“Eric and Rebecca,
We have a great accountant in S&I Financial Services
that has shown a lot of interest in becoming part of the financial services team
at BYUH. Her name is Alicia Doutre.
I know you don’t have any immediate openings, but she’d be a
good one to keep in mind. She’s very professional, experienced and detail
oriented. Let me know if you have any questions about her or if/when you
might have a need for another professional in your office. She’d be a
great fit in either financial services or student financial aid.”
I was a little worried because he referred to me as an
accountant and that is not my job title so I wrote him back to clear that up
and this is what he said,
“I think you’d be a great fit there. I spend more time
in the finance offices at BYUH than anyone in our office, so I’ll keep my eyes
open for you.”
It is so nice to get such unexpected help. I didn’t ask him for this or anything. I am not going to start packing my bags yet,
BUT I am sure going to keep selling everything I don’t need for the time
being. Maybe I can take this smog filled
air for a few more months since I have people looking out for me like
this. The way people are going out of
their way for me makes me feel like I better accept a position if I get offered
one. I mean I would have to be crazy not to. Chance of a lifetime!
