Waiting & waiting...
So the good news last week? Bill was offered the job at the gym. It was totally an "American Idol" kind of situation. Multiple interviews, 300 applicants...The position wasn't even listed. Bill was supposed to go back this week for a third interview, but since he was offered the position, today was about salary negotiations. This is why we're not sure if the good news is good news yet.
We drove up there (for another hour & a half trek) again this morning. Bill met with them for a good two hours. It's an awesome gym with incredible amenities. However, they don't have a business plan or any kind of sales strategy. They just open the doors & wait for people to come in. This place is owned by someone who thinks of the business as more of a hobby. The gym Bill & I come from is a cut throat, competitive, "gross is king" kind of place. They have purchased a space to open the first club up there & they've offered Bill the sales manager position when it opens next year. The competition is on now & Bill really has something to offer this new gym.
They stated their offer & we had different requirements & bottom lines. Now they're talking it over & going to call us back tonight or tomorrow morning. So far, it looks like we'll know for sure tomorrow. If I hold my breath any longer, I'm going to pass out.
