I had my interview today. One thing I hate about applying for jobs, and interviewing....is that they never say...CONGRATULATIONS! YOU'VE GOT THE JOB! They just shuffle you off to a computer or hand you a stack of papers, and just leave you there. I guess I got the job...I'm not really sure....but I'm like 85% sure. I was there for 2 HOURS filling out papers, and then I had to go home and fill out more.....geez I really hate the legal mumbo-jumbo. W-4? G-4? I have no clue. So I have to finish those tomorrow. I don't think the boss lady likes me very much.
I mean I dressed nicely. I had slacks and a nice top layered with a tank underneath...and the girls and stuff were covered. But......boss lady kept looking at my bosom, and was like " The dress code here is to be comfortable, but respectable." She asked me what I thought respectable was and I was like ...No shorts and tanks and stuff....and she just pursed her lips and nodded...I don't know if I'm reading too far into it. But there were digs like that sprinkled throughout the interview. Have you worked in a library before? No ( that's on my application), or " The only reason we are giving you this job is because you want to be a librarian"...I guess my personality didn't dazzle her. I could not find the place at all. I tried to look on the internet...what ROOM the place was...but no...it was useless, and so I had to call her, and she sounded exasperated...and she had to come a get me *sigh*. I apologized, and she didn't seem to mind, horribly...oh well.
She's like...you're only other work experience is at the Dodge place...and I was like yes ma'am ( man that was weird, I rarely say ma'am and stuff..I just wasn't raised like that) and said that I did filing and stuff, and then basically she yelled at me .." THIS IS NOTHING LIKE THAT!"....and then later after filling out forms...she was kinda nice and she was like these forms are difficult and I nodded, and she's like, I had another girl in here and she had NO work experience, and she had no idea what to do.....
My job will be kind of interesting...I'm responsible for keeping people whispering and prevent them from eating ( which will be interesting because I'm a very loud person..) but it will be kind of cool because I'll be like Madam Pince in training.
I have to buy a parking permit...will be a pain...because permit will set me back like 30-90 dollars and I only get paid 5.50 an hour.
Pros: I get to read books, boss lady 1 and 2 are willing to help me learn the ropes, and I get to see how I like the librarian thing.
Cons: awkward work situations, possible sucky-ness at doing the work ( BUT I'll DO MY BEST!), and no road trip to Wisconsin :( and I really wanted to go....oh well.
Hopefully, I'm just overreacting and boss lady will be awesome.
I have to go back tomorrow to see her, but at least I know where to go :) I'm wearing a turtleneck tomorrow....which might be painful because it's Georgia...but she won't be able to accuse me of flaunting my boobage.
