"The Job Interview: Nixed."


Well, unfortunately my job interview on Tuesday was officially called off. Two reasons applied. One, it was outside my transportation range, as it is about a mile and a half beyond the end of the city busline. I don't plan to walk that far each morning in the dead of winter just to get to work. And two, apparently this is strictly a marketing job and I would be required to travel to multiple companies each day to do my thing. Thus I would need a car. Currently I don't own one.

So, long story short, following a call to the company, I thanked them for thier consideration, but had to respectfully cancel the interview. I guess I don't feel all that bad about it though, especially knowing that if I had been able to make it in tomarrow, I would have found out the same things I did over the phone -- I'd need a car for the job, the bus doesn't go that far, and it has nothing to do with artistic creativity.

Oh well, at least I can say I tried, right? So, I guess I keep plugging away at the resumes and applications and see who else is interested in my top-notch creative skills. .... [smile].

As always, I'll let you know how it goes. Stay tuned. And, in the meantime, have a blessed Tuesday!

Your happily blogging friend,
-Jon
