Dream Job smacked me in the face
I applied for the same position, different place. The director was coincidentally the person who answered the phone when I called to see how my application was proceeding, and she asked me to directly send her my resume. I did, and I did an interview with her, a director for a different but similar program, and someone I would’ve been trained by. The interview was normal but afterwords the other director of the program reached out to me about a position on her team, and honestly a better position. I took it, and the reality hasn’t quite hit me yet. I’m going to be getting not one, but two offices. I get to do more outreach within the community, teach others, and really help people. It’s dayshift, weekends off, and a good amount of PTO each year. I’ve been working towards this for so long it doesn’t quite seem real. I’m excited but there’s this damper where I still can’t let myself feel really excited. I don’t really have anyone who’s excited for me, and I think that maybe why. Anyways, it was nice to share, thank you for reading 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
