The Waiting Game

So it begins. The wait.

I have to say the day itself went pretty well - except for when I ran out of money and had to ask T1G to pick up my tab. Damnit

Once everything came together on the presentation I was on a roll. I took my shower and cleaned up half way decent for an old white lady. I actually got to the office over an hour early. HUGE bonus points as they were wanting to have an early day if possible.

The interview itself seemed to go fairly well. But keep in mind - I'm talking to a couple of professional sales people (or charming liars as some people refer to them) so it's hard to get a good read. I got through the presentation and it went, while not as well as I would have liked, pretty darn good.

I spoke with a friend that works in that company and knows all the players. He made me replay the whole thing blow by blow. All he kept saying is - Ohhh good answer!! Damn, perfect! So I guess by his standards I did alright.

I know I showed that I have the skill set. No doubt there. I really think they realize that I'm willing to work. My history shows that. The big unknown is how I fit in the team. I have no way to know how my personality was recieved.......

So they will be making the next cut early next week. I figure I should hear something by Tuesday.

Can I tell you how long the next 6 days will seem?!?!?!?!?

Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and good wishes. Do me a favor, please? Keep 'em up. It ain't over til the fat lady sings, and I haven't even warmed up yet.

I REALLY WANT THIS!!!!!!!

I'll send over some large Italian gentlemen to make some personnel suggestions :-)

I know you did great! Meantime, good thoughts go out and will go out, and if needed, I can grab a couple of the boys (maybe the grumpy old men) and go have a "Little Talk" with them too... *G*

I am sure you did fantastic! Good Luck!

I'm sure you did great. You are a wonderful person, and if they couldn't tell in the first 5seconds that you have a great personality...then they are just silly, silly people. I think you should take Harvey up on the Italian guy.

We really really want you to get this.

I will try to double cross my fingers and toes for you!
