AdamsBrown Interview

Haha...ok, this was an interesting morning for me. I have never been tested on so much crap just to get a job. Yikes! And what's even funnier, is there was a legal section with questions like, which of the following is not part of a complaint? a. caption b. introductory clause c. prayer d. closing clause. Now, for any of you law students or paralegals out there, what the heck is this crap? I took civil practice, and actually just had my final last thursday, and I even had to draft my own complaint. And I never had any type of clause. And yeah, there is a prayer, but it's a prayer for relief! So, really the question should have been, which of the following is the only part of a complaint, and the answer is A! Too funny. And this wasn't so much as an interview, which is what they portray it to be, as an informal chat about what type of job you are looking for. But it went well, from what I can tell, and hopefully I'll hear from the legal recruiter shortly. She's looking in Philly and Jersey for me, so keep your fingers crossed! I am so excited about finding a job somewhere new. And the sooner, the better.

Oh, and I HATE Kindra. White trash Kindra. The one who used to be my best friend, and then stole money from me and lied to me. Because she just bounced ANOTHER check, for like the fiftieth time, to my mother. And that was still for October's rent. I love how my mom calls and leaves her a message, and Kindra won't call back, but as soon as I call, all pissed off and angry, she calls back the next day. But of course, always when she figures I won't be able to answer the phone because I am at work. Argh I hate her. I can't even believe I'm wasting this much type on her. I hope her Christmas is extraspecially unmerry. And I hope her kid is born on my birthday, so she'll always think of me when she's celebrating his birthday, and how she screwed me over. ha. Alright enough about her.

On another note, it seems that all of my friends are dropping like flies. My sister is getting married in June, my friend Martha got engaged this summer (but they are meant for each other), my friend Sarah will most likely be engaged by tonight, and my friend Lindsey will be engaged sometime in the next month or so. Why is everyone in a hurry to get married??? See, this is why women start to feel pressure, because everyone else around them seems to be doing it, and they feel like there is something wrong with them because they aren't. I refuse to succumb to that. Tony and I are in a good place right now, and I'm happy with taking it just one day at a time. Marriage is a huge decision, and I don't want to do it more than once. And I'm happy for everyone else, I just hope that they are making the right choices for themselves. Divorce is just way to hard on people, from what I've seen. Don't get married because it's convenient, do it because you want to share a deeper, stronger commitment with someone you love, and want to change and grow with them. Because believe me, the person you know today will be someone different ten years from now. Make sure you are ready to accept and love the person they are going to become (within reason of course, because if they turn into some psycho, you can't accept that!). And also, make sure that the two of you communicate well. That is such a big part of relationships working well...people listening and understanding where the other is coming from. You'll never get anywhere otherwise. Ok, enough of me ranting about that. I need to pretend to be busy here. After work it's off to the mall to do some shopping. Yay. I hate shopping this time of year. But I really need to do some shopping for myself. That's the best kind of Christmas shopping.
