Weird things
Apr. 1st, 2011 07:02 pmWednesday I had what was officially the sketchiest job interview ever. It contained almost zero of them asking me questions to find out if they wanted to hire me, and lots of discussion about how awesome they are to make me want to work there. And then they wanted a decision right then and there, and also $99 for some class fee. (I think that second part is illegal in New Jersey.)
I was uncomfortable with this and asked if I could think about it and get back to them. They promptly scheduled me for a second interview this morning. I went, but only because I was so skeeved out over being asked for money the first time that I left my coat there, so I had to go get it back.
The "move back to NJ, freelance and work on my novel" route is looking more and more appealing every day.
On the upside, I also had a non-sketchy interview today, and have found one or two promising leads on cars (because mine is disintegrating around my ears), and I got a good review on the freelance assignment I'm doing, and I have my coat back. So I am feeling somewhat okay, all things considered.
Also on the upside, I read Susan Cooper's The Dark Is Rising Sequence.
Utterly unrelated to anything: Castle has GOT to do something about Dr. Motorcycle Boy sometime soon. He can't just sit around being conveniently inconvenient for Castle and Beckett forever.
