JOBBED - Finally

Philter14

After umpteen interviews and rejections, I finally was offered a clerkship with a judge. I told her I was pregnant right away and she was super supportive.

The position is my dream job - I will be clerking for the Supreme Court of NJ. I couldn't have asked for a better position/offer. The fact she is so supportive only adds to the awesomeness.

I will start after I take the bar - August 26 - and I'm due on October 4. I hope to work right up until the baby is born and take a few weeks off after he/she's born. The clerkship is only a year long, so I can't take an extended leave, nor do I want to because of the experience. My husband works from home and my MIL is going to help by watching the baby as well. I'm really fortunate that I have such good support although I might come home to find out she's given my cats away.

I just had to share because I'm so excited! Graduation, new job, the bar exam, and a new baby - such a year!

Awesome!

There were a couple of girls in my class who were SUPER pregnant when we sat for the bar, I have no idea how they did it. Possibly astronaut diapers.
