New Job

Yesterday I met up with an old friend of mine. He liked me a lot and decided to hire me. I started working today. The way the company is running is like a not as well oil of a machine I would like, but it's going to give me some great entrepreneurial experience. I actually like the work, but I don't like the structure as much. I like to be in control and be in charge of major projects. I think I'm going to have to learn how to get this business going without having everything smoothly. The guy is only paying me $500 a week and I'm okay with that since I need the money right now, but if I find something better, I will take it because I've got valuable skills, and while I see the potential for this company to get bigger, I may want something more stable first, or primarily have something that's stable.

Job Interview

On Tuesday I had a job interview with the Main Library. Actually, it was an interview with the Miami-Dade Public Library System for a position in Purchasing. Purchasing and procurement is something that I've done in the past. I didn't expect them to call me, so it was kind of a surprise. The interview was great. I was low energy though. I didn't really expect it to be the way it was. It seems like a good position, and I'd enjoy it.

I asked the boss guy some questions, and he told me that I was one of the 25 guys chosen to be interviewed out of the 800 that applied for the position.

I sent a Thank-You letter for the interview. I really do hope I get this position.
