Making some tentative plans

We've had an interesting week in regards to a job Jeremy applied for. One of the doctors looking at his CV (medical resume) actually called Jeremy last Monday or Tuesday  b/c he liked it so much. The doctor mentioned something about Jeremy coming out and seeing the facilities, so on Thursday Jeremy called to see if they wanted him to come out. A nurse wanted to check with their medical director first, but she was in a meeting, so we were waiting for a couple hours to see if he would be leaving for the weekend or not. He got a call an hour and a half later saying yes, we would like you to come to Washington to see our medical facilities. So I helped Jeremy get packed and out the door in less than 20 minutes and away he went.

Fast forward two hours, and who should open the door but Jeremy.

Huh?

The first words out of his mouth were, "Everything is okay, this is actually a good thing." Which allayed any fears of mine about car troubles or something happening with the job.

It turns out there was a miscommunication between the medical director and the nurse. Yes, they want Jeremy to come out and see their facilites, but they want to fly him out and show him the sights and schmooze a little. They actually want to fly out our whole family, but that's probably not going to happen since the baby is due in 5 weeks. When Jeremy told them I wouldn't be able to come, the medical director told him they would wait until after the baby was born to fly him out, and that he's first on their list. Apparently it's really important to them to find a doctor who is a good fit with their practice, and they're willing to wait for the right time and put the money into finding him. The more research we do on this job, the more it seems like a good fit. We're keeping our fingers crossed!
