life's surprises
so in case you don't know.. i got fired from my job on wednesday... because i was "too shy" and "not picking things up quick enough"
now i do not consider myself mentally or physically challenged.. but apparently these people thought that i was slacking in some way. so on the third day.. let me repeat, THE THIRD DAY, they made the decision to let me go. since this was a job that i had found through a temp agency it wasn't the actual office manager who let me go, the guy from the agency called to tell me. joy.
so i guess in all of life's catastrophe's there's a some hope. because a former boss called me, telling me that i would be great at this job in the federal court. basically it would be scheduling hearings and getting cases together and getting to say "all rise" when the judge came into the courtroom.
with the confidence she had in me how could i really not see myself in that job? i would be a fool not to accept it. so i went on an interview on thursday with them and the judge seemed to like me so i'm pretty much in. although i still have to go through a lot of other legal stuff. like a background check and fingerprints and things like that. the only down side would be the commute. basically i would have no life during the week because of the amount of driving that i would do. but you know.. i guess you have to give up some things for others. and i'm willing to give up some things for others. because there are always the weekends.
plus i could theoretically enroll for night classes at sjsu for a masters just like i planned.. so not all things would be lost i guess.
i am just deeply offended that after three days someone could do that too me. i left a job that i could have theoretically been made coordinator/supervisor in a months time.. but i left because i thought it would be a good step for myself with pursuing a MA in Counseling and getting out of SMC IT for a while.. so needless to say i was pretty pissed about it. but really it's their loss because if they had even bothered to check my references they would have known that i am a hard working person in everything i do.. so it's their loss really...
