Feast or Famine

I just got a call about a job interview. I'm going up on Friday morning, to interview for a position as a lab coordinator at MU-Middletown.

Sent an email to the gal at UC who's trying to schedule my interview, to let her know it'll need to be Thursday or sometime next week.

Meanwhile, RC says (via email from HR girl) that they remain "very interested" in me and that my application is waiting on administrative things, and I should hear something by close of business on Friday.

*headdesk*

One of these things has to come through for me, right? *starts drafting resignation letter in head*

I've got so much crossed for you, it's not even funny anymore. There's going to be something!

That's what I keep thinking -- of these three opportunities, one of them has to come through.

I hope so, at least.

Thanks for keeping things crossed for me. :) *hugs*

At this point, anything that takes me on the road toward a new job is a good thing. I'd rather have too many options than none, after all.

I have all the confidence in the world that at least one of them will come through for you.

I actually believe that a few will and then you will have to decide what to do. When that does happen, just remember to do what is best for you and yours:)

I hope you're right. There's a tiny part of me that hopes I'll get turned down for two of them, so I won't have to make such a tough choice. But yeah, I'm going with my gut and with what seems like it'll be the best for me and my family. I'm done with worrying about whether I've inconvenienced anyone else.

Thanks! *hugs*

Hooray! I think. Yes, it is hooray?

[identity profile] ghoulsis.livejournal.com 2006-06-13 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I believe it qualifies as hooray. In the spirit of keeping my options open and all.

Thanks!

This is good news!! Sounds to me like you'll have your pick of good jobs - which is always much nicer than having to pick amongst bad jobs (or not getting a choice at all). :-D

Yes... given the option, I'd much rather have too many options than not enough. But I have a sinking feeling it's going to come down to two things I'd like very much (school or RC), and it's going to be a hard choice no matter what.

Ah well. As Zip is fond of saying, we'll jump off that bridge when we come to it.
