So I went to DC for an interview Monday. Lockheed paid for my trip to NoVa and for me to stay in the Crystal City Sheraton. Go in Monday afternoon for a 12pm interview time. There are about 12 or so other people; 9 white males, 1 asian guy, 1 black guy, and 1 other asian girl. There's this automatic bond with me & the other girl cuz we were so very outnumbered.
First thing's an hour-long intro to Lockheed Martin video; what they do, some security stuff. Then they sent us off on our interviews. Each of us had a different amount of interviews cuz different managers were there to talk to us from different departments. I first talked to a guy who was okay. That one went okay. Next was a girl. She was more upbeat. I joked a bit with her which was cool. When I left she said, "It was great talking with you. I hope we can make this work." so that gave me hope.
They said I'd get an offer from them if they wanted me or a "sorry" in 10 days.
Got a call this morning while I was at the mall cuz I needed a haircut. Chillen at Gamestop talking to Alex, Sarah & Billy cuz they were there reserving the Wii (oh Wii jokes..) and I get a beep cuz I missed a call. Billy goes home and I'm standing there staring at my phone. It's a 703 number and I know. It's gotta be Lockheed. So I'm like omg. Call voicemail... and yeah, got an offer O_O
Alex was like "Dang, congrats" cuz I was all scrambling for a pen and paper to write things down with. The lady I talked to offered me a job at the Springfield Lockheed o_O
So. Me. Of all people. I dunno how, but like Wes said, don't question it. Just gunna run with it. So yeah, working for Lockheed Martin next year. This should be interesting........
PS. OMG IT'S SO COLD. IT SHOULDNT HAVE BEEN THIRTY DEGREES THIS MORNING.
PPS. I can't believe I missed Grey's yesterday cuz IHop was so fricken retarded at preparing food. I hate them sometimes. Especially Thursday nights.
