I'm sending plenty of luck your way!

For all I know I may be doing a month long of interviews...kinda like being tease with the possibility of getting a job.

That would suck.
sounds good that he was kinda prepping you.

thanks much appreciated.

a month of interviews would suck. groundhog day comes to mine without being able to have any fun. I hate interviews and now I'm sure it's going to be harder with so many people out there wanting/needing jobs.

I was told that the one job I applied for that they would start out as part time so I could figure out if I liked the job or not. hell, it's been quite a while since I've had a job that I actually liked doing that didn't affect some other part of my life that I liked as much or more (working in an MC shop does suck no mater what anyone tells you). it's a job I don't have to like it to still do the best I can.

GL Rogue, with all those interviews and contacts I'm sure you'll grab something soon. There's no doubt about it.

On a side note, I'd like to take this time to share my hatred of public speaking. Both the class and the notion its self. I have to give the second speech of six tomorrow in my damn class.. I'm just happy the semester is half-way finished already.

Edit: GL to you too zed.

I hated my public speaking class. I can..or could write a helluva speech and do well on my presentations/speaking, but I hated it.

Now I'm trying to come up with a plausible reason for the old job firing me. Hell, I'm not even sure if they truly consider my fired since I was told to "come back in 90 days and talk to me"

I guess I could give a generalized "downsizing" excuse.

works for me. Tell them you were told you were being let go (true?) and that you were told to come back in 90 days (true again?)


That's all you should have to explain, play dumb w/ everything else....

If she says that wouldn't they just overlook her for someone without the possibility of leaving?

Not only that I'm not guaranteed to be able to go back. Plus, this job will make more money so where do you think I'm going to want to be?
