Also, I had a job interview for a long term temp assignment / possible permanent position and I haven't heard back from them. It's not like a dream job, however we really need some income and I couldn't be more qualified for this job if I wrote the job description myself.

Call them?

Gainful and sane employment ~ma sent out to them that need it.

I'm at home for lunch, but really should get back again before the next rain band hits. The landlord wants to prep for Ike but I'm trying to talk him into waiting.

Aims, have you seen this?

I'm sorry, Sean.

DavidS, how long has it been since the interview?

Sean , I hope prepareing for the worst is a waste of time.

Matt's day is not improving

Sending serious employment vibes to all those who need 'em.

Call them?

It's through my temp agency, so all I can do is bug them. Which I have been doing.

DavidS, how long has it been since the interview?

Just since Tuesday, which I know is not long for a permanent job. But to start the temp position, they wanted somebody to start Thurs-Fri to get trained by the person who used to hold the job (and she's going out of town).

So, I suspect they're treating it more like a permanent hire (it's a six month commitment just on the temping side), but also suspecting that they have doubts about me or they would've jumped already. I might be their back pocket choice, or something.

Gnaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh. I want to crawl into a cave and have someone bring me margaritas. This week SUCKS.

(And not just for me, either. WTF, universe?)

WTF, universe?

It's really been a bad year for Buffistas. Much more suffering and loss than usual.

Oh Sean, I'm so sorry. I'll be holding you and S in my thoughts today.
