Today in DreamJob news:
At 2:48 pm I get a call from the Pentagon City store. Odd, I’m thinking, since all the attention has been focused towards the opening of the new Georgetown store. I’m surmising that they’re pulling resources to get the new store open and this is their way of informing me.
After listening to the voicemail a few dozen times, and having a stiff rum & lemonade, I call back. It turns out the Georgetown store is full (their words—meaning fully staffed already) but they’re interested in me coming on at the Pentagon City store.
Now, the Pentagon City store is in a mall and it’s kinda tiny and always crowded and, at least one time when I was there, unbearably hot. But maybe it’s that high-volume hectic environment where it’s best to go in there and kick some ass.
Tomorrow’s appointment with the store manager (whom I spoke with on the phone) is at 3:00. I guess I’ll know by 4:00 then!
One step forward and two steps back. Ugh! But, hey, at least you got a voicemail and they threw you a lifeline. I know you want this job (a job, any job) so I will keep the positive vibes flowin’ for you. Keep drinkin’ the lemonade and keep your spirits up. Good luck toworrow.
can the process possibly take longer? probably…
anyway, i keep my fingers crossed.
and pentagon city: not as fun a g-town but could be much worse.
PLUS, just getting your foot in and mebbe you could xfer to gtown l8tr. OMG–I REALLY hope you get this and that it’s all you want it to be.
