As some of you know, I was given notice on Monday that I'm gettig laid off from my current job as of July 8th. I'm not to upset by this because I look at it as a means to an end - no more emotional abuse from my co-workers and more availability to go on interviews, pound the pavement, etc. And I'm not worried financially because I can draw unemployment until I find something. (Just a side note, unemployment looks at the past 12 months to determine payment, so it will be more money than my piddly 16-hour paychecks.)

Well, I went on an interview this morning for a job I reeeeeeeeeely want (at a local Community Center) and out of 30+ resumes, mine made the "top ten" for interviews. They are going to be narrowing it down to three this afternoon, and I should know by the end of the week if I got the job or not. She asked me how I would handle people who are 'stressed out' about things (brides-to-be, people planning a wake) and I told her that "I would put myself in their situation and ask myself 'What would make this easier?'. She started scribbling like mad!

So, please, could you all keep your fingers, toes, eyes (and anything else you can cross) crossed for me!
