I had a job interview today. A real live job interview. One where I had to actually think about what shoes I was going to wear and put on lipstick. A job that (if I get it) would pay me real money and I would work in an office. The thought of having a job scares the crap out of me. I don’t want to miss out on anything with the boy, but he and I are at the point that we need our space. Oh and money, I like money.
I don’t want to go into detail about the whole thing too much because there are a good number of locals that read my blog and I’m one of 8 candidates for the job. Needless to say I haven’t interviewed for a job since 2002 and I didn’t totally suck at it. I feel fairly qualified for the job and am passionate about the position so I think that is a bonus.
They hope to have a decision by the beginning of next week. It’s a fast process. I think it went well. Their parting words were, “your knowledge of our vendors is impressive.” That’s good right? Or did I name drop too much?
Now if you’ll pardon me I’m going to have a really spicy Indian dinner, drink a few glasses of wine and celebrate Dine out for Life Night in style, with my two main men.

OMG….Elle….if you only knew how much I understand the need for “space.” Good for you. They will be total dumbasses if they pass you up!
Good luck! It’s a hard line to draw between needing space and going insane. I’m still finding it….
A job! Shoe money! Woohoo! Good luck!
Call me!!!
Crossing my fingers for you!
Good luck. I think that sounded like positive feedback if you ask me.
Good Luck.. I hope you get it
Good Luck! We will definitely keep our fingers crossed for you. And I think that their comment about vender knowledge is a good thing. Look forward to hearing more about the job. Hugs, Aunt Jan
luck. Luck. LUCK. I hope they know how lucky they would be to have YOU on their team.
Good luck! I love being back at work … it’s so much easier than being a SAHM. Plus you get adult conversation, chance to go out for lunch (with adults) and money.
I have also enjoyed my evenings more with Rita … and looking forward to the entire weekend together!!!
Good luck with the job!! I know its difficult to work out the right amount of time with the kiddo. But, in the end, you have to do what’s right for you. Keep us posted
