Yet another reason why my life is CRAZY
So this is a followup from the last entry... less than 1 week has gone by... record time, but I have to get this off my chest, because it is just so... NUTS.
First off, I'm home in Kansas City for my spring break (got back Sunday).
So I had my interview with the last physical therapy place on Wednesday. We shall call this place... WILSHIRE. It went well, as I said. They followed up on Saturday and called me after I was done teaching (How considerate of them!! They remembered what time I said I was done!!). They basically said that they were still very interested in talking to me again (second interview... check), but because I was going out of town the next day for the week, and the guy was going out of town the day I get back to LA, they just wanted to let me know they were still interested and set a tentative date to meet again when the guy got back (does that even make any sense?)
I was all happy, because it's a good sign that they're willing to wait that long (2 weeks) to interview me again... right? So all is fine and dandy, and I am eagerly awaiting our next encounter.
BUT WAIT.....
So remember the OTHER physical therapy place I interviewed at about a month ago? (ok, so 2/28... a few weeks ago) We shall call this one OLYMPIC... The one who said that they couldn't hire me because I didn't have experience, but was like... "if we have another opening, you'll be the first to know..." Yeah, so today at 1:20pm, I got a voice message on my phone from THIS PLACE saying "Hi this is blah blah blah... I would like to invite you to join our staff at [olympic]... give me a call back and we can discuss times and pay and blah blah blah."
WHAT THE FUCK!?!!
So now you call me, after I just interviewed at the PT clinic of my dreams ([wilshire])who still hasn't rejected me, and offer me a freakin job?! Why didn't you just give it to me in the first place!? So basically, I procrastinated the ENTIRE day and put off calling Wilshire because I all of a sudden became extremely intimidated and scared. But I wanted to call and see if there was any possible way we could move up my second interview. I'm willing to go as far as fly back to LA 3 days early so I can have an interview before this guy leaves. I need to find out if they're even considering hiring me, or if they're just stringing me along, because I don't want to lose Olympic if they are. Then I'll have no jobs and I will be SUPER sad. But regardless, I think I'm going to call Olympic tomorrow and tell him that I'm on spring break and not in town, so I can't make a decision until next week.... then we'll see what happens.
But seriously guys, what gives?
I think God was mad at me (ok.... probably not mad, but just saying "WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!? LISTEN TO ME!) because I applied for the pepperdine position even though he kept giving me signs. He even went as far as to deem me "Not Qualified" for the pepperdine position when I accidentally applied for it (that's a WHOLE other story....) But yes, in case any of you pepperdine people are wondering, I applied for Student Orgs coordinator, they told me I am not qualified, and no, I'm not going to apply again. Because I think 3 signs is persuasive enough.... I don't want it to rain frogs or locusts any time soon...
