Oh by the way ...This is me in the pink dress on the left... then my sister is the bride, then my lovely sister in law and last of all our tiny friend. Sooner or later I gotta quit hiding afraid someone is going to notice I am indeed a big girl and treat me different. That's not giving my friends a lot of credit and I'm sorry. I am who I am by the grace of God. Yes I'm flawed but it's ok...
Well, both of my interviews went very well. The first one lasted about 45 minutes, partly because one of the interviewers (there were two, I was on speakerphone) talked about the program and the growth they've had. I don't feel as qualified for that job, but they still seemed interested and impressed. They have a few other people to interview this week and they hope to make a decision by next week. They said they aren't sure how they feel about hiring me without meeting me, nothing against me, but they aren't sure it'd be fair to the other applicants and I understand it's good to meet someone first, so I'm not sure how that will work out.
The second interview was a shorter one because it came from HR instead of the department itself. She seemed to think that I'd be great at the job, and once I do some online testing, she will forward all my information to the actual hiring manager of the branch I applied for. From there, the manager will have a video conference interview with me (if I haven't already moved by then and meet them in person). This job seems to fit me more, and they had better hours/benefits/pay, so I think if I had to choose a job at this point in time if offered both, this one would be it. It does require 7 months of training (paid), so that might be stressful, but it's also good to know that they train well.
So...yep. I researched for about 45 minutes tips on phone interviews, how to phrase answers, etc. so I was well-prepared. I was very nervous before, but once they started, it's like I had resolve and was calm and they went well. I can relax for a while now.
I will be telling my supervisor sometime this week about my plans to move. I do not look forward to that, not because I think she'll get mad, but because...I love my job, so it will be a sad thing. I'm wondering if she somewhat expects it, after recent talks we've had (family visiting, I don't get to see them often, where do I see myself down the road, etc.). I am going to stress (and will to my coworkers as well) that it has NOTHING to do with them or the job, it's me going back to my roots of Missouri, but it will still be a downer.

Isn't it interesting how people feel the need to add that little extra personal insult in there? Like, hey... what you said isn't true. Oh and by the way, you're fat too. Kinda removes the entire validity of what they were trying to say in the first place. I wonder if they realize how ridiculous that is.
Stupid flat butts.

I just love you so much....even though you're thin... I know you have a fat heart ..
Oh Pipp! I only just saw this. I'm so proud of you for showing us your pic from the wedding! But um... I want to see the entire picture, lol. I can already tell that your hair is going to look beautiful. The dress is gorgeous. Your hands look so graceful. Is it weird that I always look at people's fingers?
M
Pipp-
I've found that when people call me fat, it's because they haven't got any other valid criticism to throw at me. And if that's the only thing they can find "wrong" with me, I must be doing something right.
At any rate, you're beautiful, inside and out.
*hugs* (gosh I'm awfully huggy lately...weird)
