I had to fire three (three!) people today. That was a bummer. Thank goodness for fermented beverages and Battlestar Galactica.

Is there a library deity I can sacrifice something to in the next five minutes to make sure my first Saturday on the new job goes well? This will be my first time working for more than three hours without backup.

[thelie-berry]

Man. All these "O Captain! my Captain" posts. I'm pretty sad, y'all.

I got the job!

Who’s got two thumbs and a foot in the door at an academic library?

Huzzah! Now I just have to pack up everything I own and find a non-stabby cockroach-free apartment in a major city five hours away…this is gonna be so much fun!

Have I reblogged this before? I've probably reblogged this before.

Ahhhh!!

I got asked to go to the next round of interviews- this time in person! I don't even know how to articulate my excitement!

Eek 2: Revenge of the Eek

Phone interview went well (I think? It's so hard to tell). Now just to wait and see about an in-person interview. Deeeeep breaths.

[thelie-berry]

Eek.

I have a phone interview on Wednesday for a position at an academic library! So far preparation has consisted of frantic note-taking, obsessive research, and walking around the house interviewing myself.

So. Yeah. Coping well.

[libdream]

Good luck!! It’s the best job in the world.

I have been on the other side of those phone calls. Be yourself! Be engaged. Humor puts both sides at ease. We want you to succeed as much as you do!! Rooting for you :)

[thelie-berry]

Thank you so much! I'm fortunate to have a few years of experience at my back, but haven't interviewed in awhile. Your words of encouragement are appreciated. :)

Librarian Fact #205

Librarians experience a profound sense of guilt when asking patrons to pay their fines - unless the patron tries to wriggle out of a single day’s overdue fee, in which cases librarians may become both supremely inflexible and unbearably smug.

I stumbled across the big (?) Allegiant spoiler. Send help.
