On last Thursday morning, I found out that I had an interview at that place for the Temp position. This was new for me, my experience with temp jobs was that you showed up, and started working, there were no interviews. I assumed they'd only see a person or two though, and my agency agreed, having only sent myself and a girl working three part-time jobs. So I had a good weekend, then on Monday morning went to the interview. There were three people there, the person I'd be replacing, the HR director, and the Assistant Controller. I thought the interview went very well, aside from the fact that I admitted not having experience with their software, but that I could learn it very quickly. From what I heard later, they agreed that it was a great interview, saying I was the top candidate.
Until the last interview. That person had experience in the field, and with the software. Damn it. Aside from being a temporary job, I thought it was perfect. And I want a job there so badly now. The money I'd save could be put towards the house, and us. The place would get so much nicer so much faster than it is these days. My dreams were dashed. But there are other jobs. I just have to work harder. Find one. Take this interview as a starting point instead of the ending point. Keep my chin up, etc. etc.
Wednesday night I went over to B's to watch Smallville. We watched that, then had dinner and watched an old episode of Shazam. Remember that show?? Talk about a look back in time. Dinner was good, then we played Madden 2004. I ALWAYS win that game. Nobody told me the computer version was different control wise. But it was. Took me 3+ quarters to get going, then I stopped him, got 14 points, and was driving with 18 seconds left. Unfortunately, threw an interception then and lost. Grrr. Can't believe the Packers lost to the lowly Lions. But there's always next Wednesday. I did notice that he didn't want to play again right away!! Lol.
Got back to Waukesha at 11 to find my parents waiting for me. Art needed a ride to work. FUN FOR ME!! Whoo hoo. Grrr
