Good morning, all! I slept a very long time, and I'm up and moving and pondering what will occupy my day. I think i may drag out the ladder and redo a shelf of books in my work space. On my way back from market, I saw the super who will be up later to examine the oven's pilot light, so I've got two events to consider over my coffee.
DR Cillaliz, will we have to call you "Yer onner?" I wish you great success with the application.
LOL, No, you can still call me cilla. It's funny, I was so excited and up and positive about the possibilities for me and the time line of finding out in a month or two whether I got it,that I sort of feel like I got gut punched when Edith said she had a new job less than 24 hours afer I told her. I know she says she'll stay on part time, but I don't think that will last. After working together for 6 1/2 years, I feel like I just lost my best friend. I really didn't expect her to give me notice before I even completed the application. I guess I knew she was looking for something more in her career. I'm happy for her, but it's still a blow. I'm glad it happened now, so I can get over it before I file my application and have an interview.
Look at it this way, Cillaliz: Without her employment with you on her resume, it's doubtful that she would have gotten hired so quickly. You had a part in that.
Oh I know. I am happy for her and unbeknownst to her, I saw an email she left open on her computer where she was telling someone how cool I was. That made me feel a lot better. (she does know I use her computer when we have walk-ins when she's not there)
After a weekend with airplane crash survivors, a week of thinking about whether I was going to take a leap and apply for this job and then having Edith leave so quickly, I'm just emotionally exhausted. I'm about to take a nap. Then if it's not stormy I may go to the baseball game..
