Hey, great news. I take it your silence was while waiting to hear back?

CUK will be emptier now you have a gig, especially since SY01 isn't having a nightly crisis.

Congratulations!

SY01 can have a for starting this thread. In the current climate interviewing is a tulipe experience because so much can go wrong and the last thing that you want is people asking you about how it went.

It worked though!
