Transition is fun. Or at least, that's what people tell me. It's interesting, to say the least. I swing back and forth between worrying about getting a job, and enjoying the pleasure of sleeping (almost) whenever the heck I want.
And then, the last few days happened, and I'm a bit dizzy from the whirlwind of change.
I've been applying for jobs, right and left. Craigslist has become a friend, and I was able to grab three great interviews from the 20(ish) resume submissions for jobs posted. All three of those turned out to be rejections, but hey...there's a plan...there has to be right? Gotcha! I believe there is. I've been praying for God to close all the wrong doors, and open the right one(s) so that I'm where He wants me to be for the next year or whatever.
So, the Venetian has been the hotel in Vegas that I've been determined to work at since I knew this break was happening. I've been faithfully applying for different jobs - because they have been faithfully rejecting me for each of said jobs. Upon getting the third rejection (after nearly four weeks of waiting for a response beyond the screening interview), I immediately RE-applied again - for housekeeping this time. All the others had been secretarial positions, so I thought to mix it up a bit, ya know?
Two days later, I had the screening interview. At that interview, I was scheduled for a second interview two days later. At that interview, I was hired. SHEESH! When the door opened, it blew open so quickly I could hardly catch my breath!
And then, I had a second interview at Starbucks, and the manager hired me at the end of the interview! SHEESH!
So, now I have three jobs. :o) Mildly psychotic, I know. But one will be full time, one will be very part time, and the other will be floor-sets only. I'm just waiting for the official job offer from the Venetian before I make any sudden moves...ya know?
So, as boring as this blog entry was...life is definitely NOT boring these days.
