New job

I am once again gainfully employed!!! I interviewed on Wednesday the 11th a company called Vital gear here in Lexington. It was a customer service with Peachtree knowledge. The interview went well, but I was concerned about the pay, it was much lower than I had been making. They told me they would start me off low, then revisit it every few months with the goal of me being up to what I was making by next year. YIKES! But, I needed a job. They offered me the job that weekend, starting the week of Thanksgiving. Monday morning they called and asked me if I could start Tuesday. I showed up Tuesday ready to work! The company makes sights and grips for bows and rifles. Ben the owner has the patents on all of the products we sell, he designed them all. His wife Maria was doing pretty much everything else and was completely overwhelmed. They have been in business since 96 I believe, but moved to KY from ID a few years back. I started working closely with Maria taking over a lot of the bookkeeping. Maria was impressed with my knowledge of Peachtree and bookkeeping and was very happy with my work! Tuesday Ben took me aside and told me that after talking to Maria, I don't need a training period and bumped me up $2/hr. He told me that we will meet in January for a review and probable raise, then again in April. Thursday Ben, Maria and I met and discussed more of the responsibilities they want me to take over. I am going to be taking over AP and AR on top of all of the bookkeeping, I will also be setting up and takaing care of the new company they are starting, and they are hoping to send me to some trade shows next year. I really like this job, and I love the people I am working for! Ben and Maria have a daughter who is an Opera major at UK, Arianna, and a son who is a year younger than Ali, Everest. This is a family business and I am excited about my future with them! You can check out our website here!
