New Job

May 30, 2008 02:54

So Wednesday I quit Target and told them I wouldn't be coming back. Thursday I started at the Humane Society. I'll be training at Lollypop for a few weeks before moving to Petsmart. I didn't do much today, mainly just watched what the adoption agents did. Eventually I'll do more so I can figure it out. I'll work Wednesday, Thursday and Friday 3-7 and Saturday 8-5. It was rather overwhelming but the people were all nice and of course I get to work with and take care of animals.

When I was filling out paperwork with the woman in HR she mentioned that she was glad I was starting and that the man who did the interviews and hiring had been disappointed when I initially declined the job. With my horrible self esteem and the fact that I had been rejected from so many easy jobs that college students get hired for to make extra cash, it felt good knowing that they really liked me in the place I really wanted to work. I'm sure that was part of it. Anybody that knows me knows I'm not the most confidant or outgoing person. I mean I'm not depressing but I think that even when I do try and come off as more confidant and enthusiastic in interviews it doesn't really work as well as I'd like it to because it doesn't mean much to me, money that's it but my heart isn't in so there's nothing to drive me to MAKE me want it and let them know I'm right for the job. But with this interview I really wanted it and was enthusiastic which I think showed.
