Jul. 15th, 2004 08:15 amThe Four of Spades
The Four of Spades is a card of satisfaction and stability in both health, work and all affairs in general. Recovery from illness and any work-related problems can be expected under this influence. It can mean working hard and steadily, but usually this is a welcome situation, making us feel more secure and stable in our lives.
Essentially, the Four of Spades is the strongest card of security and foundation in our life. When it shows up in our reading, we will always achieve this kind of satisfaction.
A fine card for a job interview day. :)
In other news, the LJ Crush meme has been taken down, so I can't get on it. :(

Top 5 Pet Peeves
1 - poor hygiene, especially oral
2 - people who can't look at themselves objectively
3 - people who can't accept that there are many many "right" ways to do things
4 - people who drive slower and/or more erratically than myself
5 - cruelty/intolerance
Top 5 Fears
1 - not achieving my goals
2 - disappointing others
3 - that I'm a bad "mother" (to my cats)
4 - heights
5 - that I'm not pretty enough
Top 5 Joys
1 -blckwngdorcl
2 - my cats
3 - Core Energetics
4 - listening to others
5 - helping others
(Note: 4 and 5 of Joys is best achieved by driving out in the middle of nowhere with a close friend or two -or someone who you'd like to fall into that category-, cracking open a bottle of Mad Dog 20/20, and nursing it while spending hours and hours talking about anything and everything.)
( Oral, Anal, Genital? Yes, Please... )

- Check on blckwngdorcl's LJ
The job interview seemed to go well. He asked when I could start, so that seems like a good sign. Of course, after that, I had to do the typical background check and whatnot. Unfortunately, this particular background check includes a credit check, and that may fuck me, big time. We'll see. They also had some tests to take on the computer. Psychoanalysis and whatnot, and also some general knowledge, vocabulary, and math stuff. There was also a section where you had to look over some data, and there was a time limit. This was one of the sections that was timed, and the only one I didn't finish in time. However, I think I was accurate, and I really don't think anyone was expected to finish it, 'cause I know I was going pretty fast. In fact, true to my typical style, I finished my tests, and went back to the paperwork and finished it before the other two chicks in the room were done with their tests. (Have I ever told the story about my LPN boards? I'm pretty sure I was the first person done with the morning session, and I'm positive I was the first person done with the afternoon session. I heard much grumbling and sounds of amazement when I turned in my test booklet. I passed the first time around, too.)
Anyway, I don't know if the other two chicks there were applying for the same position I was. I don't think so, really, 'cause I don't think they talked to the same department. The guy I interviewed with was the supervisor of the department I'll be working for, and I don't think he had any other interviews.
No idea of salary. They're willing to work around my school schedule, and they seem to be very flexible as far as days off. I did get a copy of the benefits package. The medical isn't all that hot, the dental sucks. Well... for a normal person, it doesn't suck, but whenblckwngdorcl needs $3K worth of work, the $1K/year limit sucks. Eventually, we'll get that taken care of. They have an interesting day off policy. Typical vacation, typical holidays. However, they have 2 floating holidays, to be used for religious holidays, if the company isn't already off on your own personal religious holidays. If your holidays are already covered, you get those 2 days to use at your discretion. Pretty cool. Also, even cooler, they have no set number of sick days. They prefer to handle those on an individual basis. How fucking cool is that?
One of the best things I've found in applying for jobs lately is the references section. Thanks to the eLit experience, my friends have been my co-workers. Typically, I'll putdai_syn, walkingbear, and meadowhawk as references - supervisor, director, and co-worker, respectively. If there's another space, I'll add fornorald, supervisor. I rather like having that option. :)
Anyway, cross your fingers for me!
