Waiting for the call Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I'm going out of my mind. I couldn't sleep all night, knowing this very important call would very likely be coming today (Wed, March 5). I woke an hour before normal, and I've been waiting by the phone. I'm going nuts.

I went on an interview yesterday, and they said it was very likely they'd make their decision by today. They need someone right away.

I kicked ass. I was slammin'. They were very impressed by me. I made constant eye contact, I repeated everyone's name as I was introduced. My portfolio (which needs to be updated) is awesome. And I have something that no one else likely has, impressive looking posters of site maps I did (which every single interviewer said they needed!).

I know I got the job, in my bones. But the waiting is killing me.

Good luck.

I felt the same after my interview where I got this job . . . I "knew" I had it but could not make myself calm down until I heard officially.

Hopefully this is the start of better times on your career front.

I got a great job two weeks ago.

But I'm supposed to start two days after I ship out for the desert.

An interview appointment about a second job ($$$ ) got rescheduled because of the trial of 17N and the huge workload associated with it for news agencies)

Oh well I have to wait a few days

Both, ironically enough. I'd already turned in my 30 day notice at my apartment complex and had begun looking for a place to live in Mimai-Dade (we found a place and were planning to put a deposit on it as soon as Bunnygrrl's tax return comes in). Then I got a call Monday that Vistakon wanted to interview me. They're right down the street, I could bike to work if I get the job. Obviously, getting the job means staying in Jax, but I'm fine with that. It's only supposed to be a 3-6 month contract, so we're gonna live like hermits until the contract is over and save, save, save.

If it turns out to be a more permanent kind of gig, then my choice is, do I want to move towards the beach, St. Augustine, or Riverside (Jax's alternative neighborhood).

Good Luck, Che!

So, to live in the alternate neighborhood, you have to be a commie and gay?

I guess you're out of luck, then...unless, of course, there's something about bunnygrrl you haven't told us...
