One day there'll be a place for us
Oct. 4th, 2002 05:25 pmMy stomach is all jumpy and I've no clear idea why. Usually, when I get this feeling it means that there is impending doom on the horizon. Maybe it's just my upcoming 28th birthday tomorrow. I don't know. But, I wish for it to STOP. Now, please?
Yesterday, I went out with Mine Ninja for a bit. We were on yet another search for keen Halloween swag and mostly came up with a whole bunch of nothing. Old Navy blows this year, for Halloween goodness. Last year, I bought a number of peachy things (like my glow in the dark skull and crossbones boxer shorts). And this time round, everything sucks. Wee Ninja bought me a little wind up skeleton guy (glow in the dark), who is now residing on my computer desk and has been dubbed "Skully".
Bright and early this morning I received a phone call from a headhunter. This woman, Denise, works for a mortgage company based out of Chicago but is hunting for their office located in Delaware (not really so far from me). Pre-closing document specialist. My duties would be checking over the files before they were sent to closing. Easy fucking work, really. And it pays inbetween 25 and 30,000 a year. She told me that with my experience, I would most likely fall right in the middle of that pay scale. She had called me earlier this week, but when I told her about my need for Fridays off (my mother's chemo treatements), she said she would have to call the DE office and find out what they have to say. Apparently, she told me this morning, that everyone wishes to interview me anyway. Which I reckon is an ego boost. I was supposed to receive an email from her with directions to the office, but has not come as of yet.
Delaware. Eeeek. I'd be all professional commuter and such. I will also, most likely, have to play at stealth goth by taking my piercings out and covering my tattoos whilst in the office. But, I am no stranger to this practice and don't resent it. I'll ask about dress codes anyway, just to be sure.
My interview is on Tuesday, at 5pm.
Twisty stomach, go away.

I never got her email address, because she said she was going to
mail me first. And I also am stupid and never got the phone number.
