Yes, but it fell through at the last minute because the contact I had got shitcanned himself.

So I took a crappy office monkey job for a few months until a better opportunity came along. I'm still somewhat of an office monkey not working in my field, but I'm a pretty well compensated monkey now.

I'm adding this to my resume under "sculpting." Just sounds dignified.
