Do I really want a new job?
So my friend got me an interview for the job that she is leaving, and she was so excited about it. It wasn't a total disaster, but the lady wanted me to come in the day she got my resume which was a little weird. They spent most of the time telling me how great my friend is, and when she came in she didn't know a whole lot, but she learned it all, so now they have changed the position to reflect that... geez. Then they wanted to know what would happen if I gave less than two weeks notice... I mean, honestly, who while looking for a job, doesn't have a job already? And in what world is it ok to spend a whole interview comparing one person to another? The whole thing left a bad taste in my mouth. I didnt go horribly, but I am hoping they were only so nice because they love my friend. They seemed really desperate for her to train her replacement, well, I guess if they are not uber qualified already. She is starting her new job at the start of next month. So i figure If they don't call by friday its not gonna happen. They havent posted the job as far as I see, so I guess maybe they are looking at more internal peeople or other recommended people. Its horrible because I really don't want to work there. I mean it would be a good job, but it didnt really feel right. I am not supposed to be picky, but I dunno. I am sitting here going please dont call, please dont call.... Its strange, but after finding places that I really wanted to call me... I mean, if they wanted me, I would take the job, but I might be looking for another job at the same time. I just dont like the idea of consciously being compared to someone that i am not. I dont really like the idea that if I dont live up to something I am replaceable. I dont think I would ever put myself in this position again. I am resolving to spend my day off tommorow applying for more jobs. I think I would really like to work in a hospital. They dont seem to want me, so Ill have to find some way to get through that. I dunno I hope they get more applications, because I am hoping after tommorow it will all go away. Im thinking my friend will tell me if they bring in someone to train with her. It would be the nice thing to do, since of course I didnt tell her any of this.... If they leave the position open after she leaves they will definately find someone. Im just hoping they arent as desperate as she said... I dont know what is wrong with me. I mean its hard to know the only reason someone is looking at you twice has not so much anything to do with you.... But I would still think after hating my current job so much I would want to do anything... I thought I would....
