SO CLOSE.....

My mom called me yesterday to tell me that Mobius, a company I sent my resume to, called up and was asking if I was available for an interview. My mom gave me their phone number and who to talk to so I called. As not wanting to stir anything up at the office I did the call outside. I was speaking to the contact person who said she'd have to look my records up and would call me back. They didn't. I went home wondering what was up?

As I woke up this morning I gave them another ring. This time the person on the other end told me some of the details. Their only open positions were contractual positions. I politely declined saying that I was looking for something more permanent. They just said that they'll get back to me once there's a permanent position available. Bummer.

I thought that was going to get me out of my "makapili" status that I'm in right now. As much as I want to bolt this company, I still have to be practical and not just jump ship because one so happens to pass by. Oh well. Maybe I'll ask one of the Japanese here at the office to introduce me to the art of Zen. It'll give me a little more patience to deal with them.

“SO CLOSE.....”
