What a difference a day makes!

Taking things one day at time is not such a bad thing to do especially in todays climate.  Yesterday I was really down, things were not going well and I had yet to dig out my car.  The car thing may not seems so big but since I did not do it I was more or less trapped in my house.  To top off the not bad not good not anything day, while cleaning up after dinner I realized that the pipe connecting the sink to the drain was no longer connected.  Funny thing though I learned that VIVA paper towels really absorb a lot of water.  

What does all that have to do with my job search not much but quite a lot all at the same time.  After feeling worthless and unwanted yesterday I made sure that I got up early with a fresh start. I also wanted to contact my landlord early so the sink would get fixed, it will on Friday, but that is besides the point.  I had a plan today a list and I was going to stick with it.  And for the most part I did.  The car is dug out and I went into the real world both good things seeing as I have two count them two interviews tomorrow.

One is a first interview the other is a second, well kind of sort of a second.  The job that I was blogging about yesterday that they re-scoped and I did not know what my status is, I do now.  The new HR person called me to discuss the opening based on my newly submitted for the re-scoped listed resume.  After she asked me a few questions I told her of my history with the position, of which she was not aware of.  I made her aware that I was really excited about the opportunity that this opening represented and how I told the person that first interviewed me that I would act as a consultant if I was not longer a good fit for the job.  After checking this out she called back and want to see me again.  I was on cloud ten!

I really think that I would be a good fit for this company and really hopes it turns out well.  If not I have another new interview later on in the day.   I am not so sure that this job as good a fit I may be beyond what they are looking for.  Yesterday, I was down and would have sold myself to the unemployment devil to make them think that I was perfect and even taken a huge pay cut to get money coming in, but today is a new day.

Then there is another interview on Monday.  I have to look into the company more but hey it is going to be three interviews in three work days.  I think that I am doing well today.  But like I started off saying you have to take one day at a time.  Tomorrow although is a two interview day, yes I like saying and thinking that, can be another story.  But like all nice Jewish girls I gave up negativity for lent.
