The more I think about it
The more I really don't want this job I interviewed for, and for once, I'm kind of hoping that I don't get a job. The job is simply working the telephone help desk, from 3 - 11, which sucks. What sucks even more is that I'm qualified to do so much more. I'm Microsoft Certified to be a Systems Administrators, not a help desk operator that someone calls like directory assistant. Soon I'll have the title of Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer, which means I should be building systems, not taking phone calls. I just know that if I take it, I'm going to hate it and be miserable. I want my job to be challenging and fun, not sitting in a cube and answering the phone all day. We'll see, hopefully the people interviewing me realize that I'm just way too over qualified for the position, which I really am. In the meantime I just need to plug away at the classifieds on Sunday, hit the Microsoft books to finish up my MCSE and then start hitting things like Monster and HotJobs, although they both really suck.
On the positive side of things, spent a really great day with Elena yesterday. We did some shopping, took a look around Best Buy for the digital camera she wanted and then grabbed some take out food at Outback. Then we just hung around my house and watched a couple of flicks. All in all, a fun day. She's working tonight, so I probably won't see her, unless I feel compelled to go to her house to lay out in the sun, which is probably a no. I'm not into tanning, and it turns out tanning is her all time favorite past time, so what can you do? I can always go over there and just hop in the pool, sit in the shade and relax. We'll see.
In the meantime I really should hit the exercise bike or something. I only did it half assed yesterday for like 20-25 minutes. My heart just wasn't in it and I was distracted thinking about this job shit. I guess I shouldn't really worry about it until I get an offer, because otherwise I'm just beating myself up over nothing, you know? Well, peace out.
