Hee, just kidding. Actually, I got the official offer yesterday, and since Qualcomm is a Serious Business I can only assume that the numbers it contains are for real. Truth be told, I've got no reason not to accept it.

Grrr! You totally had me fooled, I was feeling sad for you and everything. I'm glad you got the job though!

Congrats! I was really hoping you were kidding yesterday.

Although I like the happy medium I seem to have managed witha lot of people-- believability at first, but after thinking about it, realizing it's an April Fool's joke.

But did you receive the follow-up April Fool's notice from Qualcomm today?

Congrats!

Yes to both. :)

I went "This is probably an april fools'" but I've known enough people who got to the "all but officially accepted" stage and then got dumped for one reason or another that I didn't jump to conclusions.

Now what would be really funny(?) was if they actually *did* do that to you, but it was only an April Fools' joke, and they called you back today with the offer.

I'd settle for something that was actually marked so I don't panic before I'm about to start looking for apartments.

I'd told you the night before they had an offer, I just needed to call them back about it...

I apparently didn't register that it was an actual offer distinct from the theoretical offer that's been in the works for a week now. Also I don't entirely trust job-stuff until it's official, with actual forms in hand/on computer.

Woohoo!
