I had a interview on Friday morning and another one set up. I thought I lift enough time in between the 2 interviews. I guess I didn’t have enough time between them. It turns out I liked the first place I interviewed with but it wouldn’t work out because of how recently I broke my ankle. This could cause me a lot of problems, so it was decided that it right now wasn’t a good fit. Eventhough I was well liked by the interviewers.
Here’s what getting my husband and I, many who I have interviewed with have seen the administrative expereince I have and told me I should do, because I would be good at it. My husband said it surprising how people who interview you, understand this better then your temp company. Everytime I bring it up it’s always higher management excutive admin positions they have avialable. They want 5 years of expereince, well I got a good 3 to maybe a little over 4 years expereince depending how you count my call center expereince. I am so tired of working for temp companies and being treated disposable.
I have recieved a couple of emails in response to my posted resume on line, but most of those are commission jobs or car insurance or some other thing that I would have to get a certificate and spend money I don’t have. Now I know I am not a sales person I have tried and and trust me things do not sale themselves like some companies claim they do. I know sales wouldn’t be a good fit for me, but something where I am working with people and helping people would be great. This is why I was so happy with the temp company job being a receptionist. Well I guess it their lost maybe that how I should look at it. Not my lost, their lost becuase I am a good worker, and I will try my best to do the right thing.
My husband and I talked this weekend about a conversation he had with rabbi. He asked me a question of, if you where on a mountian and had a business thing you need to get to the top for. While going up the mountain, you saw someone who had fallen and needed help or they’d die. I said I would stop and help the person, I wouldn’t worry about getting to the top at that time becuase that person is maybe more important. Ethically this is the right answer but business wise companies would rather you just walk over everyone and leave that person their to die. Well I couldn’t be able to do that to someone, it against everything I am. I told my husband maybe I should start acting how other people act, but we all know I wouldn’t get away with it. It’s amazing how lazy workers can get away with being lazy but you get a worker like me and we get lazy suddenly it a sin.
