The Great Escape (I hope)

After spending hours and hours polishing my resume and cover letters to apply for two jobs who have still not contacted me after three weeks, I get a phone call from a company yesterday that I completely forgot that I applied to. I think I just happened to see the posting on Workopolis a day before it closed and thought: What the hell? Might as well apply.

Well, it turns out that they are offering two positions. It’s a publishing company (15 minutes away from home!!!!) and it turns out that the Editor (whom I spoke to) is looking for an assistant. She asked me if I would be interested in both positions and of course I said yes. So, now I have an interview next week.

I can’t even explain what this has done for my mood. I don’t even have the job (yet) and already I feel this happiness. There is hope that I can get the hell out of here. I just keep thinking about all the crap I have put up with from my boss. She’s rude to everyone, racist, always in a bad mood.

I really hope I get this new job.
