I am going to start from the beginning in telling you about my new job. I love working, so it has been killing me to hang around the house since we have been married. The first week we were here I lined up 3 job interviews. They all went great, but stood out in the crowd. My interview with Doug Morgan was something I could have never expected. To be honest with you I did not even want to go to the interview, because my previous one had gone so well.
My interview with Doug was 2 hours long! We talked about everything under the sun and even ended the interview with a word of prayer. Talk about being placed by God! Doug is the son-in-law of Clyde Bailey, owner of Bailey's Fine Jewelry, and he does all of the HR for the company. I went in thinking that I was interviewing for a fine jewelry sales position and left with so much more to think about.
To make a long story short, Doug offered me an amazing position! Bailey's is opening 2 Pandora Concept Jewelry stores this October. (www.pandora-jewelry.com) I am going to be on the management team for the Crabtree Valley Mall location! I have worked in jewelry since I was 17, so it is so exciting to be on the leadership side of things now. Our store is set to open October 22nd. I think I am going to be going crazy until then! This is such an amazing opportunity and an answer to many many prayers. GOD IS GOOD!
I started work last Tuesday, I will be in the Bailey's store training and getting our store ready until it opens in October. This coming week I have 8 interviews for prospective employees. Please be praying that the right people will come through those doors on Wednesday and Thursday!
Thomas and I are so thankful for everything that is happening in our lives right now. It is so hard to believe that we have almost been married a month! Life is grand in North Carolina, but I miss my friends and family very very much. It is definitely hard being so far away from everything familiar, but we are learning the ropes together!
I am being called to help with Hebrew flashcards now! I hope all of you have a great Labor Day!!
Elizabeth
