The interview went really well (I DO know my shit, after all), up until we started talking availability. The position they were looking for is an immediate opening, and I won’t be able to start until May, when I get back from my residency. He did say that I should give him a call in May, though, if I’m still interested. We’ll see if I am; my concerns about time management with my schoolwork are still very real. (To reiterate; major time intensive semester coming up, do I really want to tack on 40ish hours a week of work to that.)
The benefits are pretty damn sweet, I must say. Everyone is given an iPod (they all got shuffles when it came out), extensive job training, various gifts throughout the year, and a major discount on a system per year (full system, machine, monitor, ipod, et cetera), plus a slightly smaller discount for 3 more systems for friends and family. That would certainly help solve the laptop concern (namely that it’s falling apart… I won’t be able to get it fixed until after I get back from residency, because I need it while there).
Anyway, just thought I’d share, for those keeping score.
Hi I sure hope you will be able to get in, in May when you are done with school. I was thinking I would like to get me a laptop myself sometime. I have done some schooling with computers and passed, it was a long time ago. But I keep up to date with the computers and I am always trying different things and teach myself stuff. I am sure I will never be as smart as you and your brother and Mickey are with computers, but I am gettting older and do it just to try to keep up. Let me know if you get the job when it comes time. Good luck. love aunt suzy
