Freak out

Dec 05, 2009 22:09

Remember that job interview with the guy who basically told me I did not want the job? It was very stressful and I would not get as much money as I was making previously? Well, he called me yesterday wanting to know when I could come in for a 2nd interview!

???

Not wanting to waste his time or my own, I asked if they reconsidered the salary because I remember he told me that it was not near what I was making before. He stumbled a bit and then said, "You're out of work right? So-and-so told me you were out of work."

Uh, yeah - I'm out of work but that does not mean I would take a crappy job far away from my house that would barely cover my gas money. DUH

I did not like the feeling I got walking out of there the first time and was pretty happy they never called me. Yesterday, I was just UGH all day worrying about it. My husband took a crappy job because we needed him to so was this the crappy job I had to take? It made me sick just thinking about it. This guy was not prepared at all for my phone calls or my actual interview and if he came into my house selling what he sells, I would NOT buy anything from him. How can I work for someone I would not buy from? And why would I want the stress of knowing that I am barely making enough money to pay for gas while working for someone who makes me that uncomfortable.

Hubby and I talked about it and he saw how upset I was. Told me to tell them I was not interested. I argued with him but it was no use - If it upsets me that much to think about speaking to the man, he cannot see me working for him and as he says, his word is final. =)

I feel better but I am not looking forward to when this guy calls back. He wanted me in for a 2nd interview but did not know the salary yet so he was going to find out and get back to me. Whatever it is, I'm not interested. The whole thing gives me the creeps so as far as I'm concerned, I'm done.

unemployment, job
