Time for that cross your fingers thingie

[cornerofmadness]

So I get a call from the college I was SO disappointed never called me back. They had to use their caller i.d. at home (since one of them had called me from there) to get in touch with me. They LOST my resume and they really really wanted me to come for an interview!!

This is the one that's both tenure track AND less than 30 miles from where I grew up (and like 10 miles from the casino...) The pay is about two grand less than here but bound to go up.

It would make me a West Virginian but hey, what the heck.

But tell am i CURSED? My own school loses my transcripts for this job. This school loses my whole resume. The other school lost my letters of recommendation. ARGH.

but yay. I need a YAY icon. I have no YAY icons (or birthday ones, just pissed off ones, guess I know what that says about ME!)

That's good news! And yes, it is bizarre that this happens to you all the time :)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I'm so totally cursed but I'm pretty happy about this!

[mjules.livejournal.com]

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Not about being cursed but for them finding your resume and the interview!

YAY!

(use a spaz icon! I do when I'm random... or extremely happy XD)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[a2zmom.livejournal.com]

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

[chaos-by-design.livejournal.com]

Don't you have at least one happy Goku icon somewhere? That would work pretty well for 'yay'.

Good luck with this job.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

oh i'm sure i do ...somewhere

and thanks

[masqthephlsphr.livejournal.com]

Let's hope the lost resume isn't a portent of larger problems, 'cause that all sounds great otherwise! Good luck!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. yeah well two schools lost my stuff and MY school lost the stuff of two others...

[adeliedreams.livejournal.com]

Ooh tenure! Yay!

And West Virginia's not too bad, though I've only ever been up the coast.

[sp23.livejournal.com]

Up what coast?

[adeliedreams.livejournal.com]

Coast by bizarre inappropriate generalization. :)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Ah

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

do you mean Virginia coast? or just that you haven't been to the American interior.

but thanks

[adeliedreams.livejournal.com]

[laugh] Actually the southern end, but it was on the tail end of a trip that involved driving up the coast from Florida to Newport News, working about a week there, and then taking the extremely scenic route back ([cough] The company was paying for gas and mileage...). Ok, so my experience with the state comprised almost entirely of I77, and a decent indian restaurant in a random strip mall.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i live off of 77 about 40 miles or so

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

YAY!!!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks

[mulzrule.livejournal.com]

GAH! Everyone always looses my records too. It's a conspiracy. But Yays for the job! YOu know they really want you if they go through all that trouble to find your number. Of course the casinos are a big appeal too. :D

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Wheeling Island is my least favorite casino in the area but hey you take what you get.

and thanks

[rain-oubliette.livejournal.com]

YAY!

As a past WV-ian, I feel for you. (My relatives wonder why I don't want to move back there.... maybe it's because you're all backward-ass, racist, sexist rednecks?)

Feel free to mooch the Kermit the Frog, "YAY" icon.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

yeah my family is from there too....at least Wheeling is more progressive, such as it is

and thanks

[sp23.livejournal.com]

It would make me a West Virginian but hey, what the heck.

Hey! *g*

Good luck. *crosses fingers*

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]
