Congratulations Rachel! I just saw this as I moused over my blog post where I linked to your blog as we were both laid off. Sorry for such a late response!

Awesome news. I love to hear about someone getting employed. It is so much better than the alternative.

Was her name Dottie? I am trying to remember. She and my mother (who
is no longer alive) were friends.

Small world. Best wishes with the job.

Yes, that's it! It was started by a woman 35 years ago, and her son has run
the chain for 18 years now. And she still manages that original store!

Years ago there was a little corner store in Newton Highlands called Second Time Around where my mother used to shop. Is this an outgrowth of that tiny little store?

Good luck with your new job.

This is terrific news, Rachel. I wish you the best of luck. I know what it was like to search for a job in this economy. It wasn't easy. Have a glass of champagne!

Rachel,

Congrats on your new job! I've enjoyed learning about your innovative approach. I'm curious, what lessons did you learn in the process and what would you do differently if you were starting over?

Thanks,
Steve

Congratulations, Rachel! SO thrilled for you and can't wait to hear more. I love Second Time Around. I grabbed a few really cute things from their Mashpee store when I was down there a few months back, including a ring that I get compliments on everytime I wear it. Look forward to seeing you again soon. Enjoy the celebration!

Congrats Rachel! You'll do great things. You've already educated me that Second Time Around extends way beyond Newbury Street ;)

Rachel - while we did network the old fashion way -- meeting for coffee, I did initially run across you on Twitter. Then followed links to check out your blog and other media, before actually emailing you. So, I can vouch that Twitter did in fact play a role in you discovering and landing this opportunity. I'm thrilled you've made this connection and wish you the best in your new role. You're sort of an in-law-in-law! Welcome to the extended family. Do I get discounts?!? Mazel tov!
