What kind of job offer did I get?
Two weeks later, just before my money ran out, I landed a job with a small company. My new employer has been great. When he learned I was down to my last seven dollars, he gave me an advance to pay rent and get groceries. He liked how hard I worked, and after three weeks, he sent me to a two-day Excel class. I didn’t plan what happened next.
