Wish me luck
« on: August 31, 2009, 09:10:53 AM »
Well, the grant-funded program I'd been working on since November depleted its budget Thursday.  Bummer.  But, I have an interview in 3 hours - for the job I want.  I think I'm pretty well qualified, and 2 of the 3-person interview panel are folks I consider friends, but it's still an interview, and if I was any good at selling myself I'd still be a soundman, so I'm sitting here blathering through my keyboard to keep from totally losing it.  Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Hey, if it helps, you can use me as a reference.  I'll try to sound coherent when they call.

Thanks, all.  I think it went well, and I'm WAY glad it's over (man, do I hate wearing a suit!)  At least I'm no longer worried about my interview - now I'm worried about how well the other candidate will do.  I should know by the end of the week.

I wish you all the best.
 
It will be yours if it is meant to be.
 
The GFC is taking its toll around the world.
 
Lay off employees, make a fat profit, then lose business beacause of bad service.  
Hire on a bunch of new Dole fodder then the cycle starts again.
 
One downfall in modern business is the belief that bigger is better. Growth it's called.
Saturation or critical mass is ignored or masked by poor financial planning,  
poor forecasting and lack of contingency planning.
 
I am getting a new job soon (if I can find the right one).  
My current place of employment has been taken over by a huge corporation quick frankly the place is a RODEO.  
Full of CLOWNS and COWBOYS with a hefty dose of BULL.  
(apologies to clowns, cowboys and bull for the negative inference)
 
Man I got to stop lighting up before I get online....
 
Good luck Peter!
