Okay, I may have knocked myself out of the running for the job, solely because in Tax and Finance, we don't use phones NEARLY as much as these people do. I'd be on the phone all the time. The women I spoke to (one of them a Dr. Ginzler, the other--who did most of the talking--I didn't catch the name of) seemed to stress that quite heavily. I told them that I'd have to get used to it, but that I think I can do it.

... Think? Yeah, I know, not the best choice of words. Quiet, I was nervous. As it was, by the time 10am rolled around, I was so nervous my hands shook. Me, pressure? Naaaah.

They said they usually make their decisions in a week or so, so we'll see what happens. Tas looked at the list of duties I brought back with me, and she thinks I can do it. Mom looked at it, and she thinks I can do it. (She also said she used to do the same thing, pretty much, when she worked at the VA hospital, so she has an idea of what I'd be doing... and she used to run three clinics at one time by herself. Not all the time, of course, but sometimes she was the only one there.) I'm... still a bit skeptical. XD; I'll always be busy, though. It'll be an adjustment and a challenge, but if I can pull it off, it'll be good for me. IF I get the job. I have a feeling there were others interviewed who were much more qualified than I.

My duties... )

So you see why I'm skeptical. XD;;; I do pieces of this. Tas does a little more. Sonia does quite a bit of it, but she's also a Secretary 2, so... And of course, I'm talking about tax stuff, here, not medical. There are no patients. There are barely taxpayers, where Sonia is involved. She's not concerned with them. She's concerned with Brian and what he tells her to do. Me, I gotta deal with freaking patients. The public. I'm not sure about that, among other things.

Anyway, I told them I was interested (they make you go BACK to the Human Resources building right after the interview to tell them whether or not you're still interested in the job... I wasn't even sure I was still interested when I said yes, but I was very much in doubt), so we'll see what happens. I guess I can always turn them down later, but if it's only a week...

And that's if I even get the call. I agonize over things too much, you know? And it's a promotion. It's a nice salary jump. (They mentioned that too, by the way--the fact that I'd be jumping from Keyboard Specialist 1 to Secretary 1. It's not unheard of, but I think they were wondering if I had the experience to make such a jump.) I'll get out of Tax.

Whatever. I'll deal with it as it comes, I guess.

You know what? I still haven't gotten the test score back from that stupid Court Officer exam. I want my freaking score.

I'm sore. ;_; Blasted shoes screwed me up.

YesAsia's going to reship the game. Some idiot in Customs probably yoinked it. It's been three weeks already, I should've had it long ago. 9_9 Aaaaanyway. Think I'll bring the DS back here for another week. I'll let Craig play it all weekend or something. We've been alternating weeks, but if the game's gonna get here by next week sometime, I want to have the system to play it on.

I've wasted my time playing a game Mom and Dad introduced to me called Rainbow Web. I think I may have mentioned it before. Fun puzzle game, very addictive. (You can download it if you want, just Google the name... but you'll only get 60 minutes on the free trial. Believe me, it's only 60 minutes.) I was going to beat it, but common sense took over, so I've quit for the night. And I'll try not to play tomorrow, since it'll be a late day.

Allergies are acting up, I think... but thankfully not with nasal problems and sneezing. My problem is my eyes. They hurt. Sting? I guess... I don't know. But I've been exhausted since coming back from the interview, and my eyes have felt odd since. They weren't like this in the morning. No idea what else it could be but allergies.

I would like the temperature to hit 60, please. It's spring. The weather needs to act like it's spring. ^^;
