        I’m not sure if I mentioned it, but I’ve been out of work for a few weeks. It was totally a blessing and I’m trying to turn this into an opportunity to change industries a little bit and get the job I really want.

        I have an interview tomorrow and I was hoping I could get some good vibes! Honestly, it’s not my ideal job … the commute is over an hour each way, it involves travel (which I swore I wouldn’t do again), and it’s in the same industry I’ve been in. However, I interned for the company in the past and I know they’re a great place to work. I’m even hoping that if I do well, they’ll try to place me in a location much closer to my house (though I’m a bit less qualified for the close-to-house jobs).

        So wish me luck, BBers. Even if I don’t get the job, it’ll be good interview practice. If I do get it, I’ll have to decide if I even want to accept. But whichever way it goes it can only be good practice while I work towards getting the job I really want.

        Oh, and I have to be there at 8:15am, which means I have to wake up around 5:30am to make sure I’m there a little early even in case of traffic. I’ve slept in late the past two weeks, so wish me luck that I can still get my butt up at 5:30am

            Oh wow. Good luck. I am sending ‘cool nerve vibes’! Let us know how it went tomorrow.
            As for waking up in time: could your bunny help? They tend to get busy around 5 a.m., at least mine! You could put your rabbit(s) in your bedroom as
            alarm bunnies!!! Just tell them that getting the job means more treats for them!!! (j/k)

              Lol. The one time Otto slept in the same room as me, he was definitely up at 5:30am. Haha. When I was at my old job I was a pro at waking up way earlier than I wanted to, but I’m afraid I might now be in the habit of turning off my alarm and just going back to sleep 😉 I’ll make sure I set a second one.

              And thanks for the vibes MB and Petzy. I’ll definitely update tomorrow.

              I totally forgot to mention that I have a friend who works there (she interned at my last company a few years ago, then finished her MBA and went to the place I’m interviewing at). She’s going to meet me after my interviews for coffee or something. The best part – she’s a long time bun owner! I didn’t even know it until I got Otto and posted pics on Facebook and she showed me pictures of her two. So even if things go horribly, I’ll be able to talk about bunnies for a bit before I start the trip home 😉

                Well, then that job would be a good fit. You could talk bunnies on your breaks with your friend. Sweet.

                      If the word says the Jesus knows even when a sparrow falls to the ground and you are worth more than many sparrows, I pray the you are totally blessed in your faith when you get your new job.

                          What a coincidence! Your interview will be at 8:15, and I was born in 8-15 So I guess vibes from me would work. Good luck!

                                Thanks for the good wishes, Desma, Bunnymum, Lancy, and Sarita!!

                                The interview(s) went pretty well. I talked to four people who worked within the same group and I think I managed to impress at least one of them 😉 The job does seem nice, but I still don’t know how I feel about the commute and the travel … It took me 75 min to get down there and 60 to get home (though I drove home at 11am, so there wasn’t any traffic at all). I don’t know if I can deal with a 75-90min commute each way. And around here, traffic issues are constant … there would probably be a handful of days that took 2 hours one way.

                                I’ll have to seriously think about things, but I hope it went well so at least it might open up some opportunities with the office near my house. And it was great interview practice! I remember interviewing right after college and it was so hard … I didn’t know what to talk about because I hadn’t really done anything. Now I feel like I can easily answer all of their questions because I’ve actually been working very hard for the past 3 years. It was much less stressful than past interviews.

                                  That’s quite a commute! It’s definitely something to think about. Interviewing is so stressful. I hope you hear something positive even if you decide the commute is too much for you.
