Time out for life events

I’m going on a job interview tomorrow. It’s a pretty important one. It will be a permanent position with a Large Company in Richmond, great benefits, interesting job, and it’s another writing position.

I will be in interviews most of the afternoon. I’ll post a little in the morning, probably. But there will be a long stretch of silence from me while I’m trying to convince Large Company to hire me.

I’ve done about all I can to make myself as ready for this interview as possible, down to getting my hair and nails done this afternoon. You can’t underestimate the effect of your appearance in an interview, and I really want this job. I’ve got my writing samples all printed out, presented nicely in my Lucent portfolio (the gift from the finance dept. when I worked on their website years ago), and everything is on my jump drive in case they need more.

Now, all I have to do is convince Large Company that they need me, not anyone else they’ve interviewed.

Good thoughts will not be turned down.

  6. What I’d really like to know is: What did I do with my silver shell earrings?

    Damn. Can’t find ’em. Nothing else goes as well with my outfit.

    I can do better than good thoughts, Meryl. You tell the interviewer that you have a friend who is particularly interested in your getting this job and he’s from…Detroit.
