Are you gainfully employed now Kim!!!!!!
How did it go.....waiting here with baited breath - going blue soon!!!!

I do hope things went well this morning, Kim! I'm sure you're still cutting mats and framing at this point, but I think we are all awaiting some word from you!!!!

I had to chuckle at Karen's comment about the shoes. Quite some time back (probably 5-6 years ago or longer), I was recruited by a company (bank) that was headquartered in Temecula, CA. They had a regional office in Knoxville, TN where I would report and where I had my interview. Knoxville is about a 3 hour drive from Greenville and I drove up the morning of my interview. Helen was sick with strep throat and my parents came up to stay with her so I could go on this interview. I wore my "comfortable", very scuffed up loafers for the drive and had my dressy, nice black shoes in the car to change into when I got there. It was pouring down rain and I had to rush inside as a result and I totally forgot to change my shoes! I was interviewing with 5 professional men in a circle, with no table to hide my feet. When I realized what I had done, I about died and finally just looked at the 5 of them and told them what I did. They laughed and always gave me a hard time about it, after I got that job! LOL!!! The other horrible, but later funny thing, that happened in that interview was that I also forgot to turn off my cell phone. My daughter was known for changing the ring tone on my phone and right after the interview started, my cell phone rang and it was Helen (my daughter) calling me. The worst part was that the ring tone was "La Cuca Racha" (however you spell that). Again, I thought I would DIE! And I still got the job! Ha Ha!!!!!!

I hope your day was good, Kim! Fingers, paws and claws crossed for you!!!!

I hope it went well!

Logan, that story of the shoes & the ring tone are hilarious. My face
would have turned 3 shades of red.

I am still waiting to hear back from Kim. Fingers still crossed here.

Well?????? lol..

Wellll....... I kicked interview butt! I was there from 9:30 til 12:00, and I have to go back tomorrow for about 4 hours of testing. I would have stayed today to get it all out of the way but I had another commitment with my friend in her frame shop and I knew I couldn't let her down. They totally understood. I have to show them just how much I do and don't know about the computer program they use..... I'm actually terrified of it because I am 100% proficient with most of what he's going to test me, but there are functions I didn't even know existed let alone how to use them! Then they want me to take a personality test where they ask me hundreds of questions like "Would you ever steal?" then ask the same question 5 other times but in a different way.

The funny thing? Just as I was trying not to do a happy dance in the parking lot, I checked my cell phone, and there was a message from the OTHER company I was REALLY wanting to work for.... and I have an interview with them on friday! Oh I can't believe it! Two serious potential jobs in one week! Woohooo!!!!

Thanks a million times over for all the prayers and positive thoughts! I think they worked, but don't stop those prayers coming, I need to keep them up til I get a real offer and start my new job
