Just had a job interview in front of a panel this morning. First time for me.
I've BEEN on panels DOING the interviewing in the past, but I've never been on the receiving end of one.
[Yikes!]
I hope I did well, but I felt both my thick, dumb, Cape Cod accent AND my strangulated stutter start to wake up, all like "Whaaaht's going on?" for the first time in about a decade.
@JasonCrocker616 For some reason I thought you were going for some menial civil servant type job. Sub basement mail sorting assistant type of thing.
@Excal2mark It is, but it's working for a specific aspect of a "very secure" facility and the security apparatus that it supports, lol.
"NDAs n' shit!"
@Excal2mark I'll be a total chump, don't get me wrong, but I can be a chump for ten years and retire nigh debt-free!
[depending on debts that will be incurred hopefully soon on "new teefs."]
@Excal2mark Apparently, this whole "panel interview" approach is common now.
I had no idea.
I was basically off the job market for almost 20 years while grinding away at the hospital.
@Excal2mark p.s. Sub-basement mail sorting would be a DREAM job for my crazy ass. The more menial the better!
I'm uncanny at that shit.
@JasonCrocker616 I actually had that job for a couple weeks. I was filling in for someone at the town hall on the village green. Easiest two weeks of my life.
@Excal2mark that job would be a plum assignment these days.
Too bad I hope the ocean decides IT wants the Cape more than I do now, what with all this new family drama going on.
@JasonCrocker616 Its in the air they breath and the water they drink! Nothing but drama and turmoil 24/7/365. Imagine what a bitter old asshole Eressy must be by now.
@Excal2mark wow... it's been at least 7 years since I've spoken to that particular fucker. He's probably still shitting in weird places on other people's boats for fun...
I basically have to force my conscious self to pass out under duress, to allow a more affable, gregarious, loquacious version of me to take over.
The big problem with THAT though, is that guy has NO idea what he's talking about, often, and I rarely remember what he says or is told unless it's written down.
