Jobs, Jobs, Jobs

Ok, be honest.

Does it make me a terrible person if I see an add for a job I interviewed for 8 months ago and didn't get, posted again, and this makes me truly happy? Perhaps even laugh a bit to myself?
I mean, seriously. I'm doing the same job as this one at a competing company and have been there for over 7 months.

I can't help but think of what stupid heads they are for not even having the decency of calling me back to tell me I hadn't received the position!

Trust me, I'm not holding a grudge. I should probably call them up and thank them for not giving me the job. If they had I wouldn't have the job I have today with the wonderful people I work with. Learning not only about promotional products but business forms too!

So... does it make me a terrible person that I get sheer enjoyment out of the fact that they have to go through this process again? Where as if they had chosen me, I wouldn't have left them 7 months later?

Yes, it probably does... but oh well. So be it.

Thank you Team Sales, for NOT giving me the job a little under 8 months ago.

Burn baby Burn!

So I went out this weekend up island to Nanaimo to a boys highschool football tournament to watch my friend's son play.

It was so cool to see him play since I had seen him play his first game. What a difference! It was so neat to see.

However, I refused the offer of sunscreen... and now I am paying for it. On one side I am just slightly burnt. It hurts but not super badly. However.. my right side... it is not just slightly burned. It is so burnt that its blistering... It hurts!

I've used an entire spray on can of Solarcaine, and starting using Aloe Vera gel. Last night I was using a washcloth and ice cold water to try and cool it down. My face is burnt... it has a sunglasses burn... Its kind of like when people go up skiing and get a goggle tan... but mine is from my oversized sunglasses.

Yeah, its not pretty.

Well, anyway... I don't have much else to say, but my sister and mom were harping about how logn it had been since I posted.

Voila my update!
