In my experience, companies who THINK they want energetic go-getters actually NEED world-weary problem solvers. The trick is faking energetic go-getter in the interview.
This should be memed and shown every Christmas.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I suspect "challenging" means no one is going to help you, and "fast-paced" means constantly playing catch-up because disorganized and inefficient.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yup, sounds right. Alla dat.
Interview~ma, msbelle!
I'm about to go see Jumanji 2. I rented the first one (the first recent one with Mr the Rock) but I only got about 10 minutes into it. So it goes.

Punishingly Intricate
Well,my org is definitely fast-paced and we're neither disorganized nor inefficient. We just have a ton of complicated work to do on deadlines.

Our wings are not tired.
I've really enjoyed all the Jumanji variations. Good fun.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I've also worked places that THOUGHT they were fast-paced, but in fact, were not. Mostly I think people don't know how to write job postings.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Smiling for an hour is TOO MUCH for me right now in my life. That said - I think it went well - she has 5 potential positions to put me up for or inquire about. She thinks I should be able to get my desired salary and she didn't say anything about re-doing my resume.

That's awesome!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Sounds good, msbelle!

Nephew has received my notarized Delegation of Authority (and sharp-eyed wunderkind that he is, noted that I'd misspelled my own name, which he showed me how he carefully corrected it.)
Tomorrow he's go to the DOH Office of Vital Statistics and Registry in Trenton, which is a great name for a government function I think.
