I want to take a few minutes to update you on how our job seeking and searching is going. We moved to Michigan almost four weeks ago (hard to believe) and we have learned that it is really tough to get a job right now in West Michigan. This is especially true for my wife, who is competing with hundreds of others for customer service type jobs. She has patiently been waiting for over EIGHT weeks for a local printing company to decide whether or not she is right for their customer service position. She has taken many many computerized tests in math, grammar, and Microsoft Office operations, and she performed incredibly on these tests -- yet no job. Thankfully, she has a second interview next week Monday for a front desk supervisor position at a reputable hotel and conference center. She is extremely excited about the position and your prayer support during this time is greatly encouraged and appreciated.
Although I have not officially started at my new job -- I got a job last week at a local family fitness center. I expect to work 10-15 hours per week as a personal trainer, and I am really exicted about this opportunity. I will keep you posted as my wife continues to look for work and I begin my new position.
