La, la, la, la...
I guess that old cliche is true - things come when you least expect it. I was never expecting to hear from that other company I applied in but they called last night and asked if I could come in today for another interview. So I was thinking : great... another episode of total humiliation for me. So I drag my sleep deprived ass to Libis for that interview.
I wake up late. The stupid alarm didn't do anything for me. Hubby and I were running late. Thank God SSH was free of vehicular obstruction, I get there on time. However, the HR director wasn't there and was an hour late! Hubby was texting me to get the fuck out of there already. I tell him that I'll wait for another 15 minutes then I'm out of there.
Right on cue, the HR director comes in and says that I'm starting on Tuesday. Alright. Stop. I thought you said I'll start on Tuesday. You heard right, she says. Can you give me one week? I ask. Ok, she says. I'll have to ask you to come in next week for lunch or something and the contract, blahblahblah... I didn't hear the rest as my brain was still processing what she said. Did she just say I was hired? I think she did! Wait...what are these things being dropped on my lap? Pre-employment checklist...company books...more books.... more papers... I am hired.

It is such a relief! Thank god! Another chapter of my life over. The slate's clean and the start's fresh.
