Whats New?

Today I am trying to do a little catching up on the blog...good stuff
Ok so whats new with Ben and I and what have we been up to since we got married?
Well Ben was working for a terrible company for about a month before our wedding... while on our honeymoon they actually called him into work and then when we got home they came looking for him and were going to call the police all because of a tiny misunderstanding... their main form of communication is through text... need I say more...
As I said he was working for them and when we got home and all this happened he is no longer! Yay! Well for about a week Ben applied for many jobs. Then one day three places called him back! He was offered two of the jobs... the one was an automated call thing and it was lame. Ben turned one of the jobs down. The owner of the job that Ben turned down called Ben back and offered him some amazing benefits if he would just come and try them out for a week before he decided what job to take... Including getting paid while "trying it out" Who gets that kind of an oppurtunity??? AMAZING! So things are going well.
Ben has some amazing ideas too... He really wants to get into real estate but has a unique approach. He has some great business ideas. Neither one of want to work for THE MAN for the rest of our lives. Ben is so smart I'm always excited to see what he's going to come up with next!
As for me I'm still working at Discover Card which gets a tad tiring somedays and irriating. I work in 90 day collections so I call (stalk) people who have not paid their bill for three months... I get yelled at a lot its not depressing at all. Its a good job though. I have some issues with it but hey... its a paycheck for now right?
Back in June I was offered a job that I have been wanting forever... jetBlue Airways! My mom works there and I've been wanting to work there! I actually applied in December 08 and they were on a hiring freeze but then they called me and I was hired! I get to work from home, Ben and I fly for free we get discounts on hotels, cruises, rental cars... its going to be FABULOUS!!!
The only thing is now I have to figure out how to do Discover and jetBlue... Discover are kinda being not so nice ... they say they are but ... eh...
Anywhoo... thats where we are at right now so we will see what happens! We have so many oppurtunities and we feel so blessed! We are so excited for the many adventures to come!
