Okay, first the important stuff: The interview went well. I'm especially entertained, in a foreboding sort of way, by the fact that this company's next-door neighbor is a sleep specialist. But seriously--all my skills seemed to fit well.
Which cannot be said for my pantyhose.
Guys, you will never understand this, just as we women will never understand a sharp kick to the nuts. But if you've ever walked over a mile in pantyhose that are not only a half-size too small, but also twisted so that they bind exactly at the midpoint of the fleshy part of the thigh...honey, that's some PAIN. To say nothing of the sensibly interview-y shoes I wore, not taking into account the possibility that I would have to walk to the "nearest" (translation--eleven blocks away) branch of my bank, so I could deposit a check so I could get enough cash to liberate my car from the Nightmare Parking Garage of the Damned...Parking should not cost $24. Ever. Anywhere. ESPECIALLY not for 90 minutes. That ain't right.
I'm the third person they've interviewed. I'm fairly hopeful.
I'm also very tired and my feet hurt like hell. So I'm going to take a nap now.
Thank you all for all of your support! Keep up the good thoughts, and hopefully I'll have a job in a few days.
I hate, hate, hate pantyhose. Tights are tolerable. I have exactly the same problem. They are never the right size and they always ride down. Blech!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that the interview went well.
Pantyhose are the fruits of the DEVIL! I hate them with all the firey passion of the sun! Unfortunately not when wearing a skirt, to go without pantyhose is just as bad for me. And any kind of shoes that look nice with a skirt hurt like hell if you have to walk more than one block. Pantyhose are always too small and cut into the thigh (as you mention) and they cause terrible chafing on the thighs as well. Especially if you're standing and walking around all day in them. Pants...I'm all about dress pants.
