It started out slow today, I could not get out of bed. I was so tired... I think I am part Grizzly Bear and believe the winter should be hibernation period. I finally got it together and received my first official interview. I thought, oh this is great!! I have my project plan and some of my SOARS (interview answers) completed, I will just take the rest of the week to get things together. The only problem is this meeting is tomorrow morning with a colleague I used to work with awhile ago. I actually don't know him well at all and it has been about 10 years. All I know is that this company is interested in Talent Acquisition. Needless to say, I don't have good intelligence on this one. I am actually also scared to reach out for help with other friends from this company as it may be confidential. I am trying to figure out any scenario and hope I am prepared. I feel like I am going in to either the perfect situation or a blind execution. Lets hope for the former and not the latter.
MOTIVATION TODAY
I don't know what my deal was but I went into super procrastination mode, which is unlike me. I did everything but give myself enough time to focus on the interview. I will say I had a very productive day at Target, enjoyed lunch with my husband, played with my dog and bought a pair of jeans two sizes smaller than usual. Now I am sitting at 2:30 p.m. and starting to do the work that I should have done this morning. Oh well... when I was in college I always liked a good cram. It will be me and my drug of choice (chocolate and diet coke) working to the late hours.
MARVIN - UNEMPLOYMENT
I can't seem to get this process right. I did remember that today is my scheduled time but like the idiot I am, I called the wrong automated number. The questions were odd and seemed not applicable to an already established claim. I bailed in the middle of it, thinking the transaction did not go through the system. I then called the right MARVIN number and "all circuits were busy" of course, the whole state of Michigan is unemployment. I turned to the on line feature. Established my temporary password and was sailing through the questions. Then I had to claim some severance pay and I think that honked up my whole claim or was it the aborted other call to the wrong number - it is a mystery. Anyways, I received a message that my certification was not accepted and to please call another similar number. As you would imagine, it is after business hours so I have to wait till tomorrow. I think I was not meant for this process. PLEASE HIRE ME SOMEONE... I am much more effective in my job than figuring out the basic and mundane system of unemployment.
REALIZATION
I am not quite coordinated on this unemployment project plan. I need to keep a consistent schedule and get my work done so I am not caught in my current situation of feeling completely unprepared. Realization 2 - I am in smaller jeans - yeah....
