Interview Day

I took the whole day off from work to interview for a whole new work day.

It turns out, I might've been able to call it a "sick day" today. The few hours I was home with kids that were awake either involved crying, puking, sleeping, or a combination of the aforementioned. I hope to avoid the same illness until at least Friday.

Again - here's hoping and praying that there's a new job on the horizon. Nothing against my current employers, but I'd like a career that doesn't feel like a constant struggle to spin plates on chainsaws while someone keeps yelling that "you're doing it wrong..."

Really? There's a "right" way to spin the plates on the chainsaws?

Why yes. You're supposed to make the chainsaws behave more like poles.

But I was using poles. Then I same in to work and was informed that all of the poles were replaced with chainsaws.

Don't fret too much. Next year we're not expecting you to spin the plates. We just need you to levitate them, using the chainsaws. Oh. And they won't be plates. We're replacing them with Folger's Crystals. Let's see if anyone notices...

So - if I'm still where I am next year, it's OK. I think I can still blow enough hot air to make instant coffee appear to be a levitating plate. |
