Alright, well I recieved yet another rejection letter. The nice thing though, was that I wasn't even asked to interview, so I don't feel like it's something I personally did.
On to good news: I got a call today from the TSS agency saying that they have three cases that I can start working on. I didn't call them back because I was trying to push them off for as long as possible... and it worked!
This afternoon I got a call from the place that I had my second interview on Friday with... the casemanager position for adults with psychiatric illnesses. They offered me the job! The down part is the pay... I will be making $9.775/hour. After talking to my sister, she said that it's salary and that's how they figure it out. I told the woman that the pay was less than I was expecting so I'd need some time to think about it. I have to make up my mind by tomorrow.
The lesson learned here folks, is that having a "fun" interview gets you the job. Having a stick shoved up your ass does not (Tuesday's rejection interview). Be yourself and talk out your ass.
I am not going to call them just yet. I have yet another interview tomorrow. Chances are I will be declining this job (if offered) because of the qualifications (high school diploma).
I am sort of excited about the other job and feel totally awesome right now that I was picked! Me!! Little ol' me!! I was looking through the paper today and saw that thier ad is still in there, but they picked me! ME ME ME ME ME ME ME!! I rock! Yeah!
After my first rejection and feeling pretty crappy about myself, it is pretty great to know that some one does think I'm super-cool.
Knowing that I have an interview tomorrow at 11:30, I am planning on going to Wal-Mart love that store to get Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban at midnight! My mom seems to think that I will stay up all night watching it, however, I am barely able to keep my eyes open now... I probably shouldn't be behind a wheel at midnight, but Harry Potter is totally worth it!
So I ask you all this: Do I accept the job paying under $10 that is shiftwork with the chance of working Christmas, or do I decline and start taking cases being a TSS making more an hour but no benefits?
As I write this I am conflicted. Please help.
I might write more later, but Fear Factor is waaaay too distracting.
