Picking and Choosing

Another job interview today, interesting to have been on my umpteenth interview in a lifetime. Everytime I enter the room, the first things I always wonder are: Is this person going to like me? Am I gonna wanna work here? Is this my existence worth being here 8 hrs. a day? Sometimes I think "I love you already but you don't even know me" or "Jesus, am I really going to try to get a job here." In a way interviewing is like dating. Do you like me? Do you want to be my friend? Want me to introduce you to my family? "If I like you, I will call you," they always say. Better yet, I will e-mail you if I like you and want another date but either way, I will let you know that either "I am into you" or "I just am not into you." Today, it was really hard to read my date (interviewer). I am not sure if I am going to go out on that "second" date or not. "It would be nice to see you again", I say, "call me if you want to introduce me to your family." Dating* Sucks. 

*Dating Aside- Obviously, I need a job. I have a real "family" to support after all. But if all else fails, I can write about my job interviews as I were going on dates. Maybe someday I will get married to a job.
