So...I have been struggling looking for a job now for the whole summer. Since the end of May to get technical. And I thought I had an opening. I went on vacation with my parents and stayed up an extra week visiting for an interview. I did two interviews on that one day and was told by Friday I would hear something. Friday came and went. Sunday morning came and in checking my email I received an email from the company stating thanks for the application but the position had been filled. Well, I was sad but I wanted to know what I missed out on. So I called on Monday late morning/early afternoon. Talked to the person I interviewed with who informed me that I was still in the running and he had no clue what the email was talking about. (He did not ask who sent it or press for me he just said the email was wrong.) So..I was assured I would hear back later in the week about when my next interview would be. Oh, I forgot to mention how after my interview I rode the bus 13 hours home. So...later in the week comes and goes and nothing. Seems familiar right?
Well, I called the next week on a Tuesday this time. I needed to switch it up. I was told the manager would be in and I would hear back that day. Well I did. I was asked to come in for an interview in 2 days. (Forget the fact that I gave them my cell phone number and they called me on my house number. They knew I lived out of state so why would you call me on my house phone?) That would have been fine if I lived in state but I was having people buy me a train or bus ticket. How would I get there in 2 days plus the costs?? Well I asked about the following week. So the interview was scheduled for a week from the date originally offered.
By this time I have friends telling me it will be hard to be away from my husband for a year if I get this job. I have other friends telling me I need to stay with my husband and I do not need to look at a job unless he will be moving with me...which if he isn't then don't look at the job.
Well I travel on up to visit my parents and for the interview. I show up for the interview 10 minutes early. I already thought it was weird it was an early evening interview but "Hey! What do I know?". So as someone comes to help me the same person comes back not even 2 minutes later to inform me there is no one to do my interview. She left a note with my information for them to call me. I am still waiting on that call. I called them and no one picked up or called me back.
Okay so it is not Faith but it is funny in that I can't believe this happened way. But I wonder if God is finding a way for me to be closer to my husband and me going through these obstacles keeps me walking closer to finding a job where my husband and I currently live and where I may soon be moving from leaving him. It sure seems like it, especially with my friend saying I need to live with my husband.
Oh...maybe it should be life is funny. I know God was having a great chuckle at this and still probably is. I just want to interview and finally find a job. I did want summer off but I also wanted something I knew I would have when it was all over!
