grrr, no i haven't heard anything yet and i'm starting to lose confidence. :( I was told after the interview last Tuesday that they would call me on Friday but if i hadn't heard from them to definitely call on Monday. Of course, they didn't call on Friday so I called the HR lady on Monday afternoon and had to leave a message. I still haven't heard back and i'm growing impatient. i guess i'll call again tomorrow.

at this point, i just want to know either way! i'm holding off on starting temp work in case i get an offer. i'll keep you all posted once i hear more! *fingers crossed*

oh, thanks Judy!!

i called again on Wednesday and got to actually speak with the HR rep, as opposed to leaving another message. she said they have all been working like crazy to tie up loose ends because they will be closed for 2 days (yesterday and today) on account of a company-wide retreat, plus a board meeting and 20th anniversary party...all packed into a few days. the good news is she said they all enjoyed meeting with me and they would have contacted me by now if they were not interested in pursuing employment with me. so...i took that as good news and decided to try and enjoy my time off.

i'm now hoping they'll be calling early next week with an offer. *fingers still crossed* :lol:

hi Judy! no offer yet but i'm still in the running.

i talked to HR on Friday and i was the only one they interviewed that they're interested in speaking with any further. the whole process is taking so long because everyone who is hired automatically becomes a shareholder in the company so they have to be very particular who they hire because it's not easy to get rid of someone if they don't work out. it sounds like they're waiting on upper management to approve the hire or something like that.

so i'm still waiting! i don't want to keep calling and come off as desperate, ya know??

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
