I was offered a job working for a discount office supplies company last month and turned it down. I figured that my job with the discount office furniture store was pretty secure. If I had known that I was going to lose my job then I think that I would have at least considered it instead of telling the owner of the discount office supplies company that I was not interested. I wonder if he might have known something that I did not.

I figured that it was worth a shot to see if by chance the job was still available but I knew that it was a long shot. When I called, the girl that answered the phone told me that the owner was going to be out of the office for the rest of the day and to try back in the morning.

I called the following morning and explained to him that I was the girl from the discount office furniture store that he had offered a job to last month and that I needed to find out if there was any way that I could accept the position now. He laughed and told me that he would be happy to have me work for him especially since he had just bought out the discount office furniture store and needed help adding the entire inventory to his store.
