Would you hire me back as a freelancer after all this?

Ooh, I forgot about this thread. I went out with the beyotch because she asked me at the end of the day and I couldn't think of a good excuse fast enough. There is no romantic interest on either of our parts, I don't think. Well...my part might be up for some hot steamy boinking, but the rest of me is against it.

Anyway, I'm still working here. Every friday I go back and forth on whether to put my notice in. I think I've gotten a little scared with all this recession talk lately. I gotta either get myself over that and just jump or find something else first. I've had interviews, but not at any places that look much better than this. Things are tight right now.

Thanks Soz! But where are the rest of the dancing girls? And where are your clothes? This is a family thread, for pete's sake!

Good for you!
I'm so relieved that you found another job first! You had me a little nervous there Kick but living in NYC, you simply can't afford to be jobless, even for a minute.
Congratulations. Have a cocktail tonight on me.

Thanks, eoe. I was beginning to get depressed because I hadn't found anything quickly. I mean, at least not as quickly as I would have liked. I wasn't even getting responses on my resume for a lot of the positions I applied for, which was odd, since my resume shows me to be a pretty kickass production artist. And now that I got this new job today, another place called me about my resume and I have another interview next friday. And that place looks even better than this new one!

Even though I took this job already, I might actually end up going with this new one if they offer it. It really looks a lot more like something I'd like, rather than this one I accepted, which is more like something I think I can tolerate for a while.

Yep, that's right, I have actually scheduled an interview for another job on the same day that I just accepted one. Ain't I a stinker?

well, he's freelance. It's a different ballgame. There's lots of wiggle room when it comes to work history and moving from one assignment to another.

Ha, I just got another job offer. Nothing for months, and now two in one week. Not enough money to make me ditch the job I already accepted though. I sent them back a counter-offer which is about 25% higher than what they offered. I doubt I'll hear back from them.

I'm starting to think maybe I should rescind my acceptance of the original job offer and keep looking for something else. Hmmm...

Whatever job you end up accepting kicky, I hope your blond twit (your emesis, I mean nemeis) won't follow you there.



Was will you do for a nemesis at your next place?

You gotta have one you know.
