to be potentially employed
far cry from having an actual offer...........dont count ya chickens just yet son.
From
www.m-w.com on the word potentially:
1 : existing in possibility : capable of development into actuality <potential benefits>
2 : expressing possibility; specifically : of, relating to, or constituting a verb phrase expressing possibility, liberty, or power by the use of an auxiliary with the infinitive of the verb (as in "it may rain")
I never said I had an offer. And I most definitely agree, "don't count your chickens before they hatch".
