I really like the first job, but if worst comes to worst, this one doesn't seem like a bad Plan B. Also, Plan C has me sitting for a phone call with a national cell phone carrier. A bit of distance, but if they offer me the gig, it will easily be the most lucrative job of the three! We'll see which one pans out!

Been an annoying day since then! Plan C said no almost immediately. Plan B couldn't meet with me at the scheduled time. Logistics did not work in this manager's favor as three product vendors descended on her at the same time. I meet her for Take 2 tomorrow. Plan A? I'm starting to get genuinely angry at their onboarding practices. Basically put, they are too lazy to do their part of some of the forms and want ME to get someone I know to do it for THEM! If it's not that, it's them actually having me fill in my own background check. Apparently, some i wasn't dotted or t crossed and they want me to drag this person back in to redo that part. At least it's virtual, but that's been a fat lot of good!
It's a perfect job for me, but if they continue inventing hoops for me to jump through, it might be worth it to jump ship. Which would be a pity.
