I have a job interview tomorrow.   :-\

I hate job interviews, I do very poorly at them.  Normally Amy tells me that it doesn't matter, I can blow it if I want to... etc.  But, I really need a job, or we're going to be fucked soon.  This isn't a particularly cool position.  We'll see how it goes though.
I came to this world with nothing
and I leave with nothing but love,
everything else is just borrowed.

Fuck it, we'll do it live.

It's an AutoCAD drafting job for a construction company.

If this is a job you want, then you will get it.

Sounds like it would be a lot like what you have already been doing, so you know that you are qualified.

What a nightmare.  The interview was two fucking hours long... they had me talk to the dude forever... he actually started by saying, "So, tell me about yourself."  Instant freak out.  Then I had to tour the facilities, meet people, talk some more, pretend to be interested...  then they sat me down in front of a computer and prove to them that I knew how to fucking use AutoCAD.  I left finally, with them saying they were going to call me and let me know after they talked it over and I assume interviewed other people.  I was so stressed out from the interview, that I got into a big fight with Amy, about me not wanting a job and freaking out over the interview and being stressed that we haven't been able to pay bills, blah, blah, blah. 

Specialization of labor sucks ass.  I want to be a hunter/gatherer.

So today has basically sucked.  I think I'm going to go get drunk now.

Just go a little easy on the sauce at first. Pace yourself.

Remember that what they thought of how your interview went, they have kept from you. 
Your feeling of how it went may be " conFusalated "  with your own feelings of how hard it all was.



We have all done this. If they were honest and you were half-wittedly able to function near fifty percent of your normal, you did fine!

Thanks Dawg.  I had one glass and decided I didn't want any more.

I'm feeling better now.

Hopefully tomorrow.  He's going to be out of town Thursday and Friday, and said he'd try to give me a call before he leaves.
