Nervously excited!

Post by Tippsy'smom »

I just got a call from one of the places I recently applied for a job at, and I have an interview on Monday! \:D/ :D I'm nervous but excited at the same time. I REALLY hope this works out, because that means Dixie could come out of hiding.

Fingers crossed Jess! I hope you get the job too. About time for something to turn around for us Taureans. I'm hoping to hear back from another place next week myself, and I have the temp, (one week) job starting next thursday too....Good luck!

And I really, really want to know how you've "hidden" Dixie all this time.

Thank y'all! :) I'm already anxious! It's my first interview EVER, so I guess that's normal. But seeing as I really NEED this to work out, I'm gonna shake off the nerves and be confident. :)

Thanks Victory! :) Good luck to you too! :)

I really am not sure how we've managed to keep her hidden. She's quiet and really well-behaved in the house, but there have been times when we've seriously thought my dad knows... but then when we tell him "we're watching her for the weekend" he makes a HUGE fuss over it, so we really don't see how he could know. :lol:

Best of luck Jess, I really hope you get the job. This economy has been so bad for far too long. Everyone that gets a job is one step towards things getting better.

Hi Victory

You read my mind when you asked how Jess has kept Dixie hidden all this time. I've been wondering about that myself.

Fingers and paws still crossed for you. Hope you hear good news this week regarding the job.

Thank you Judy! :)

The interview (which wasn't much an interview, more the guy bringing us in and showing us around the warehouse and telling us about the job) went REALLY well! He made it sound like I've definitely got the job and I should be expecting a call in the next few days to start. :)

Yea Jess!

I did my "happy dance" for you when I read the news. \:D/ \:D/ \:D/
Getting an early start on the day isn't so bad - you'll still have daylight when you go home.
I'm so excited for you!
Did you tell Dixie the good news? I bet she said "woof woof woof"

Again Congrats =D=

Thank y'all! :) I'll get use to the early mornings, but I dunno if I'll get use to the being on my feet for 7-8 hours a day... :shock: My back and feet are killing me... And I'm not happy that I was gone from 5 AM to 5:48 PM... :( Almost 13 hours ... At least that's not gonna be a regular thing. I got off work at 3:30 PM (worked an hour overtime...) and then went by the bank to open a direct deposit account... So, hopefully, I won't be gone that long everyday...

That's brilliant Jess.
