I've Got the Job
I was on pins and needles waiting for them to call me. I couldn't sleep the night that I had the interview and the next day I was at work miserable thinking that I would have to suffer more time being where I'm not happy. I left work at 4 on Tuesday just as I have done always since January when they decided to change my hours and the minute I left my secretary goes to my boss and stabs me in the back. Now I know that she's a back stabber that's why I try to be on my p's and q's and not say much around her, but I didn't know that she would intentionally try to get me in trouble. She goes to my boss's office and tells her that I left early, "Doesn't Tay know that we aren't on summer hours anymore, she just left." My boss simply told her that she must be confused becauase my hours have always been 8-4 on Tues and Wed. I'm sure she felt pretty small because now she had something to nail me on, but it backfired. I thank Mere for watching my back and letting me know.
So I get home on Tuesday aroung 4:30 and my body forces me to take a nap because I had only slept a total of 8 hours in the past 48 hours. I was out, but I had to get up at a quarter to 6 to get to class. I phone and see a number that I didn't recognize and a voicemail. It was the school district. She called at 5 and now it was almost 6. I immediately called back pretty sure that no one would answer, but she does. It was Marcia calling to offer me the teaching position at a rate that is about 5 grand more than I make now. I was estatic. I started to pull over to the side of the road and praise Jesus, but I had a class to get to at 6 and I was already late. We talked contract and then got off the phone. All throughout class I was texting my friends to let them know that I got the job. My friends kept calling me and I kept having to leave class to tell them that I was in class and that I needed to text and not answer the phone. I was so elated and they were happy for me. After class I called Mister because I arranged to borrow his video camera to for my performance on Wednesday. I told him that I got the job and he was genuinely happy for me. Of course we got in a quicky before I left. I was happy bout the fact that he was happy for me.
On Wednesday my day was really busy. I took a friend to take a test for a state job and I decided to take a test also, just to see how poorly I would do. I passed with a B, but I was told that an A was needed if I wanted a job. I took the typing test and I did qualify at 48wpm. The test was for an office secretary, clerk type of job and I was surely underestimating what a secretary does. Man, the test was hard. I didn't know that alphabetizing was so difficult, but it was. After the test I took Cori, my friend who took the test, to lunch at Felice's for her b-day. Nathan, my new myspace buddy works there, so we got a chance to meet in person while we ate. After lunch we decided to walk downtown while we got to know Nathan. He's a really cute guy, but of course I was too shy around him and Cori to just let loose. It was promising before we left because he seemed like he really wanted to get to know me a little better. I was happy for that. Later on in the evening I had my recital that didn't to badly. I'll post about that later. We went for drinks and stayed out late. I think I got home at about 4 after dropping the video camera off at Mister's and really getting me some. All in all it was a really good day.
