I finally got a job!
« on: May 20, 2010, 12:10:19 PM »
After a year of trying and six interviews, I finally was accepted to be a meteorologist at the Blacksburg, VA NWS office! :dance:  I'll be starting around the first week of July, which means I'll be moving over the next several weeks and may not be around here as much during that time.  Thank you for all your moral support as it's been a long journey for me.

Well, look at you! Congratulations, Patrick! This is truly awesome news. I can understand that you won't be on here as much as you used to be, but life should be the number one priority...and then TWCToday.  B) I'm sure you will have a blast working there. When you enjoy doing your job, you never work a day in your life. I wish you the best of luck.  :)
