First Day of My New Job

I start my first adult job today.

I obviously worked as a teenager..... but once I had kids, I stayed home to raise them.

Now that they are in school all day, it's time I got back out there. Make friends. Make money.

Win, win!

I Forgot Something Important

So..... that job interview last week..................... I TOTALLY flaked out and forgot ALLLLL about my appointment!!! And I didn't REMEMBER I had the interview until Saturday night, while laying in bed trying to fall asleep. UGH!!! The day the interview was I was actually very busy and have NO IDEA why I scheduled the interview for that day. Oh yea I know why, because I didn't have my calendar infront of me when the woman called me to set up the date.

Yea, I'm totally bummed right now about the whole thing. I don't know how to go about fixing the situation either. Call and tell them the truth, call and tell them a lie (I was sick all weekend, that's why I didn't call to cancel my interview), don't call at all and just let it go...........

Geeky Working Girl?

So this Geek has a job interview this afternoon. Back the truck up a minute here...... A JOB INTERVIEW?!?!?! Yes Geeksters, like a legit real job interview.

Let me explain.....

I was at a Women's Bible Conference last week, just doing my thing. Before the conference started a woman got up and said that Harvey Cedars was looking for part-time help with light housekeeping. Something in me told me to just take the leap and fill out an application.

*Note: I'm a stay at home mom, and have been for like 10 years now. My husband suggested I go and get a job once both the kids were in school. He hasn't cracked the whip on that yet so I'll admit that I haven't been out there scoping the job scene*

Anyway, I filled out the short application after the conference. But so did at least 12 other women....

On Tuesday I got a phone call telling me that job was a part-time off-season seasonal house cleaning help, and if I was still interested they'd like to set up an interview with me for Friday (today). *Off-season, as the town the conference center is in is considered a beach/tourist town*

Oh hey! At the conference they were taking a video to put up on their website. I can be seen at timestamp 29:12, sitting against the wall under the picture with a blue striped sweater on.....

Yep, that makes me famous. LOL!


So while you are reading this I'm more than likely sitting across from someone, sweating like a pig, nervous as  all hell because I haven't been on an interview or worked a "real" job since the year 2003. It's only supposed to be a short fifteen minute interview I was told, so send me good vibes please.
