2003-02-19 - 8:05 p.m.� I'm feeling much better today. The stress is starting to dissipate, and my headache is finally gone. Plus, the weather has drastically improved, which can't help but have a positive influence on my mood. I applied for that job today. The one I mentioned in yesterday's entry. The management position, that calls for all sorts of practical experience that I don't have. It's not so much the fact that I have never done any "official" managing (even though I so totally do, and could explain as much if I get an interview), it's that twice in the posting, they explicitly ask for experience working in a long term care facility. I do not have that, though I think I did a decent enough job in my cover letter of playing up the comparable experience that I do have. I hope I at least get an interview. I'd be really good at this job, damnit. And I think I'd enjoy it. It would still have a lot of the same kind of emotional stress that my current job has, but I think it would offer some different perks that would make it more worthwhile. In other work-related news, one of my coworkers, a woman who I don't see very much because she works in a satellite office, told me today that I was possibly the most down to earth, competent, and sanest person in my office. She said she was always so happy when I was the person in our office that she had to deal with, because I am the easiest to talk with, I almost always have answers, and I am always completely sane. It was my complete and utter sanity that she was focused on. I didn't have the heart to set her straight. PS-Thanks to everyone who encouraged me on the job front, particularly Edi, who left a heartfelt plea in my guestbook.
