I got the final word today. I start on Monday!!!
YYYYEEEESSSS!!!!
I was supposed to have training on Thursday and Friday, with train travel and hotel paid for, in Groton Conn. However I got an update phone call saying they will be having another training class on Mon. & Tues of next week at 30th. St. Station in Philly. ;=3
So after all this waiting, it is official, I'm now employed by Amtrak. :=3
I have to go in on Wed. to fill out some final paperwork, but that is a technicality. I am officially HIRED!!! :=3
From when I first heard about the job to getting it ~3 months. Not bad considering it is a quasi-federal agency. :=3
New York City will never be the same. :=3

He and I have had our "differences" in the past, but we remain the closest of friends.
He works for the U.S. government and he knows the "peculiarities" that the government can have in hiring.
