Over the weekend I watched the movie Hancock for a second time. It’s not that I loved it so much I had to watch it again but when I saw it the first time I knew pookie would love it so I watched it again with him. And truthfully, I really did enjoy it. I love superheroes! The one thing I really liked is how Charlize looked like a super heroine even without having to don spandex. I kept trying to figure out what it was that made her look so Wonder Woman-ish. Unfortunately I think it has to do with her being breathtakingly gorgeous. I was really hoping the reason was more attainable like wearing clothes that she bought at Ann Taylor Loft— that way I could look like a Super Heroine too!
Yesterday I had my third interview with a company that I quite like– I wore my kickass wrap dress that I bought at Macy’s last year on sale. I also put my hair in hot rollers in the morning so I could achieve that Mary Tyler Moore, Paula Prentiss, Mrs Emma Peel FLIP. The meeting went well. Apparently I said the right things since the owner just called me and said he would be calling me later in the week with an offer. What am I saying? It had nothing to do with what I said and everything to do with my flip, my wrap and how I tried to channel the vibes of a SUPER HEROINE. 🙂 I hope to gosh this is the right move for me. It’s not like there’s a lot of stuff out there right now. But even more so, I am honestly going crazy not working. Truth is, I think this is a good opportunity. So let’s see how it continues to unfold, I don’t have it yet.
Working beats drunken Youtubing… lol
That is great news Donna!
The face that you’re speaking with “The Owner” tells me this is a small company you’re going to work for. Small companies aren’t my cup of tea; I do wish you well.
Excellent news! Einfach wunderbar!
I had worked for small companies all my life until 2 years ago. I always found that you can learn a lot because you often times need to wear many hats. Wearing all those hats could dampen the flip though 🙂
It is a small company– I just came from a small company but before that I was at a rather large company. Both have benefits and pitfalls. Right now I am just happy to find work.
Getting an offer this quickly after being laid off is impressive. Major kudos are called for. Can you share some details with us about how you landed the job?
What methods did you use?(networking,college alumni, internet job board, heard about it from a friend of friend, etc.).
Small companies have advantages, too. Such as moving up the ladder faster.
Such as getting recognition and not being lost in the shuffle. Such as not having to
deal with a bureaucracy.
Yeah – then you can start drinking the “good stuff” again 🙂
