Suffice it to say I didn't get the job. Lovely ding letter, but I came up short again. This has put me in a bit of a funk, so I haven't been blogging. Nothing good to say I suppose. Bit of Twitter, which is a huge timesink, and more Facebook nonsense, but nothing good in my professional career. Today I try a different tack and go to a meeting this evening that may allow me to get more involved in the bar association even though it's not exactly supported here at the firm. I've got to do something since our work has nearly dried up. I fear for what the future holds for my job. Nothing of my own doing mind you, but when our attention has turned to having pointless meetings in the hope of drumming up non-existent work, it's not looking good. Blah. Labels: job

I have an interview today! The firm is moving quickly, as I only put my resume in last Thursday. Heartening, most definitely. Scary, nearly as much. I've been practicing my questions, working on introducing myself so that I don't sound like an idiot, and trying not to get stuff on my suit at lunch. This would be the first interview I've had since I started working with my coach, so I hope this works. I have been paying attention in our meetings, but it's another thing all together to actually use the skills. Now, if I could only get my hands to warm up.
