I guess it went well enough to get me a second interview. So fingers crossed.

Supposed to get offer sheet tomorrow. Going to send it back Monday. And then tell them I’m available whenever. If they want me to start on a Monday I guess I’d have a week off.

Seriously though, for not interviewing in a couple decades, this is absolutely remarkable. Hope it's a great situation for you.
