I don’t know about you guys, but it feels like the 4th of July was just 10 days ago. Well, since quitting my dayjob, I have had a couple job interviews lined up in case the money situation goes sour, and I don’t really like going on job interviews, but I had some and don’t really need or want the jobs. Basically, my point is this: Going on a job interview when you need a job is one of the worst and most stressful things in the world, but going to a job interview when you don’t need a job can be one of the most relaxing and fun things in the world.
I went on a job interview TODAY, no joke. I was in Muskegon, MI working with the hilarious and awesome Amaru (www.myspace.com/youngru) and I got back in town here in Milwaukee with just enough time to throw on a suit and go to this interview I was planning on skipping. Now normally in the middle of job interviews, if I feel a huge build up of gas in my tummy due to eating tons of Taco Bell with Amaru the night before in a drunken haze, I will panic and hope that it’s not what we all know it is. That was not the case today. I felt the build up, and in my head, I remember thinking, “Oh, neat. I think these two ladies asking me questions are about to be sad.” Now I can’t be sure if any damage was done due specifically to my donation, but I do know that my two new friends stopped practicing good eye-contact at about that point. Needless to say, I am not expecting a job offer from them… unless they need someone to peel paint off of walls.
