Well, I've continued to work on the Best of the Bay awards today. I got about five more to do from Stephen BUel. Kinda irritated that I don't get extra time on this second batch, but mostly that's my fault. They're all due next week, Wednesday.
Anyway, I interviewed at GPlay today. It's a customer service position, with a smattering of IT work. Not the best paying position in the world, but it certainly has the potential to become something much larger. They are currently profitable, and unfunded, so that's certainly a good sign. THis is my chance to get in on the ground floor too. They have a trouble-ticketing system that I could probably use from home, too, which makes the 7 block commute seem pointless.
But then again, I have the interview with Lockheed tomorrow for the Ames research center project. Supposedly this is a three week position, and it's at $20 an hour. I think, if I get both jobs, I'll do the three weeks, then opt out of the reupping to go to GPlay. If I can.
But I've been through all of this before. It's not likely that I'll get either. This is the third time in as many months that I've interviewed at two places, both of which I was over qualified for. And both of which I didn't get. I suppose I should be happy that I didn't just fuck those other opportunites up through greed, or through playing them off against one another. But it's not much a of a consolation. If I had lost those jobs through my own screw-up, at least my fate would have been in my own hands.
