So...have a job interview in a couple of week. Supervisor of a youth forensics office in my city. It would mean a pay raise and I would be supervising about four or five people. The job itself is right in line with my experience and my skill set BUT the interview itself is hellish. An hour written and an hour verbal...one right after the other. And it is a behavioural interview... “tell me about a time you demonstrated this competency within the last five years and then give us the name of someone who can verify your story”. It is the WORST. But...my pension is based on my last five years of earnings so if I want a raise, I have to move up the ladder. Honestly...I don’t really care if I get it cause I love my job and the people I work with...I just don’t want to look like an idiot...lol.
Still no word from Brook. Last night was his last graveyard shift for awhile. He has a basketball game this evening (my friend is reffing) and then three days of games starting on Thursday. Sigh...really did NOT expect things to go this way given our communications the first few weeks. I do recall that I was ghosted once before. I dated a guy from the mainland for six weeks prior to meeting XH. The very last thing he said to me was...”I should get you a key to my place so you can come over whenever you want.” Never heard from him again despite a couple of attempts to reach him. A year later... I had met XH and moved to the mainland and I was online. All of a sudden, a message popped up and it was the guy who had ghosted me. “How are you doing?” Wtf? I didn’t really care so I just said, “Great...I live on the mainland now.” Long pause...finally...”How’s the new boyfriend?” Again... “Great!” “How is your boat?” (He had ordered one when we were dating...$500,000 sailboat...very beautiful). “Great.” And...he was gone again...lol. Some people are just strange.
Anyway...that’s my update. Gotta put together a study plan for my interview. I need to be really prepared.
