Ah well,
Didn't get that one. All candidates of high calibre etc etc blah blah, but the successful person had something extra. Whatever.
I suspect it's something extra-curricular because the current librarian does the costumes for the school productions. Or it could be because I hadn't managed "teacher resource room" before. Like that is going be any different to managing a special collection - which I've done (x-rays, anatomical models dadedah). Anyway, I wasn't the face that fitted.
I'm a bit disappointed, nobody likes rejection! But at the same time a bit relieved. I came away from the interview feeling sort of *meh*... unexcited and just kind of okay about it. They didn't even show me the library which was odd.
Hopefully this means there will be something better for me in my future.
Sorry, Penny :-(
ReplyDeleteBut I definitely think you're right about having something better in your future! One door closing leaves room for another one to open.
Oh, and I hope you're coping okay with the chicken pox in this heat!
ReplyDeleteI am a firm believer that things happen for a reason. Still, I understand your disappointment and have been in your shoes. My prediction is that the perfect career path will present itself before you know it - and then you'll be thankful this one turned out as it did.
ReplyDeleteBoo! But, as you say, if you were feeling a bit meh about the whole thing, maybe it's not so bad.
ReplyDeleteAre you over the chicken pox?
Bummer - but I am sure that there will be something better along the line. On the bright side, you will still have time for coffee some time :)
ReplyDeleteDarn - but like everyone else said there must be a better job out there somewhere with your name on it. And besides ... teacher resource rooms can be hazardous to your health!
ReplyDeleteSomething better is definitely in the cards, Penny. All things happen for a reason.
ReplyDeleteSorry you didn't get the job, but as you said maybe it is paving the way for something better. *hugs*
ReplyDeleteLOL at Beverley's comment... teacher resource rooms are definitely dangerous to your health!!! Sorry you didn't get this one Penny... but I agree with everyone else too... there will be a BETTER job just around the corner waiting for YOU!!!
ReplyDeleteAt least you can comfort yourself with loads of chocolate this weekend :D
Good luck in the future! I'm in the process of finding a job right now and its rather depressing to get the rejection notice...
ReplyDeletesorry to hear about this Penny. I know you are over it now but its interesting how when someone says no we dig deep and we wonder whats wrong with us? When in fact it's not often the case.I always think there is something better around the corner. Given you had the meh feeling means you knew it wasn't for you.
ReplyDeleteSorry you didn't get the job, Penny. I know that God has something even better in store for you. Hope you're feeling better!!
