See, this is the way things are supposed to go.
So for the past while I've been saying to Sam that he really should get himself a job (as if he didn't want that himself), because obviously that was required by the karmic balance of the universe to happen before I could get one. (Seeing as how he's been looking for way longer, and I've helped him become proficient in modern webdesign techniques along the way.)Yesterday he was finally talking about this company wanting to make him an offer. This morning at 09:45 I got a phone call, and thus immediately knew that he indeed had the job.
Me, I went in for a talk just now at 16:00, and I start tomorrow. (Doing freelancing, so now I have to deal with all the finicky little challenges like an ABN (Australian Business Number) and such. I expect plenty of ranting yet to happen because of that. But hey, I've got work!) :)
