As some of you might know, I was offered a new job a couple weeks back, and I'm super jacked for it. But I still haven't received the formal offer letter which is driving me nuts. I'm very tempted to send a note to the guy and check in, but don't want to bug him as he's a very busy man, and I had already emailed him last week. These things take time, I just can't imagine how it takes this long.
May 3 - Verbal offer over the phone
May 7 - No offer yet, I check in (last chance to put in two weeks notice and make our discussed start date of May 21); he replies that he's waiting on a draft from HR
May 10 - Email apologizing for the delay in getting the letter as he had to go through U.S. HR/Legal. Still no letter
Now it's the 16th and I can't figure out what would possibly take so long to put a simple offer together. I know the Calgary office is in a big hurry to get me in there, hence the concern (offer is coming from the director in TO, who's going through the US office)
So - email him, yay or nay?
