Got my offer letter today!! πŸ™ŒπŸŽ‰

Took me almost two weeks of bugging them to get the letter. Meanwhile, they had wanted me to start two weeks after the interview even with a relo! πŸ˜‚ I gave notice when I got the phone offer (I had to move anyway for my fiancΓ©'s job) and didn't get the official letter until the day before my last day at my job.
