I’m woefully behind on my updates. I owe you two Rate-A-Dates!
But the rest of my life seems to be on hold while I try to secure my next paying gig. It’s stressful, y’all. In fact, I don’t really want to get into it too deeply.
I did tell you that I flew out to my former city for an interview, yes? The latest from these guys is that they are actually lowering the salary for the position…huh? That’s right. They reduced it nearly $15K and told me that I’d need to be happy with that if I still wanted to be considered. Honestly? I’m kinda like eff you.
The explanation was that the Director of the division is new on the job and needs to really dig in and kind of fulfill that role and the Senior Manager (what I applied for) would have to essentially play the role of the “lesser” manager (while still managing 4 direct reports) and grind out the work. None of it makes sense. I’m not happy with that.
The job I was having the feels for sent me a rejection and I’m sad about that.
So now I feel like I’m back to square one. This absolutely sucks and I’m not happy.
I will STILL tell you that this unhappiness is better than the horrid hell that I felt working at The Cutie Pie Company.
I am awaiting word about my COBRA coverage, and fingers crossed, this crazy company actually has something they can send me to continue my medical coverage. I think that legally they are supposed to, but not all small companies do? Still, I had to send an inquiry to the President of Cutie Pie and he hates me, so I’m nervous and scared about the reaction. I don’t want to “poke the bear” but I NEED medical insurance!!!
Anyway, I’ll prob come back here this afternoon and start working on the two RADs I owe you. Don’t hold your breath. Ha!
Love you,
GS
