My Day
Monday night was an awesome night of pure Springsteen! As always he was great and I must admit being of sound body and mind, (no drinking) he even kinda wore me out! So after getting in around 11:30 and trying to force myself to go to sleep, go to sleep kimi, go to sleep. I successfully didn’t get one iota of sleep. You know, when you know you have to wake up at 4:00am and with a sore throat, who’s gonna get any sleep? So 4:20am up and adam, into the shower and out the door by 5:15am, in the car, at the airport, and at the gate by 6:00 (don’t worry I got me some Starbucks coffee to assist in the matter.) After some interesting conversations at the airport and on the plane, I am now in good ole Philly at 8:30…DAMN IT’S COLD OUT HERE! Off on the little shuttle to take me to get my rental car. The man says, sorry we don’t take check cards, say wha???? Do you have a credit card? NO! Sorry you have to have that to rent. I say, didn’t they already do all this for me? They reserved it, but we need a card? So I had to get on the phone and call Crothall and say, uh uh they won’t let me get the car without a credit card, which I didn’t bring. Really, do you have cash or something? Um no I just brought my ID and Check Card. So back on the shuttle I went to the Airport and got a car from Budget, which cost double.. oh I’m sure they liked me for that.. Ok so now I’m in my Sentra and off to the DR. office. I get there at 10:00 they put me in a room to fill out yet MORE stuff on me. Good goodness people, Must I be this in-tuned with myself to work here. So I do all the little exercises and one is drawing a picture of a person and it can’t be a stick person.. uh oh I can’t draw, but I got to tell you I had some fun with that. Gave the person a cute little outfit with an Abercrombie tee shirt and all, then he comes back in and says, ok, now draw the opposite sex.. OK! Hhmm is my first “person a girl or a guy” I realized it kinda could of gone both ways. So man I sported the next drawing up. He had a ball cap on some shorts and a Braves T-shirt on it. I know, what the hell does this have to do with the job. My sentiments exactly. Anyway, I will spare you all the other exercises but I got out of his office at 1:30. I am required to be at Crothall at 2:30 to meet the president and all. Have I mentioned at this point that I haven’t eaten yet? So meet with the president, I do. (Who I really liked) So 2 ½ hours and 3 interviews later, it is now 5:00pm and I gots to get back to the airport. So they let me go. Have I mentioned yet that I still haven’t had anything to eat? I drop the rental car off, get the shuttle bus to the airport, and finally after the security there (argh), at the gate at 6:30, my flight is at 7:30. So I head to the bar after 24 hours of no food and have me a glass of wine, oh wait I lied, had me two glasses of wine and a samich! Got a good buzz from it too. Finally home at 11:00pm and hyper till midnight (which I’m sure Brandigirl loved) So that was my day.. I’m quite tuckered today, but things I guess are looking good. (hope I didn’t just jinks myself!) It has been a very interesting process to say the least. They said I should know by Friday! Thanks to Brandi (and my friends) for all the encouragement and support! Did I just win an Oscar or something! Hee hee
