I just found out 5 minutes ago that my interview is at 2 o'clock.....TODAY!!!! I don't like interviews, no matter the circumstance! I got less than 2 hours to get my nerves right. And let's run down my outfit for today shall we.....
Black tee shirt with a big silver shoe on it with the words "Old School" at the bottom of it.....
Black jeans....
Black and silver basketball shoes....
Hair slicked back in a bun....
Perfect interview attire nes pas????? I mean, I was gonna dress the part. I was planning on wearing that outfit everyone seemed to like when I gave one of my speeches....but NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! If I was smart, I would go home and change right quick, but gas is too high too be driving around when you don't really need to be.
Ain't this some ish...My boy in HR must have called my Admin (or vice versa) and told them I turned my application in yesterday...we not wasting NO time are we? This whole situation is so funny to me! LOL
What's even funnier is that BigChips asked me to buy her some tires this morning!!! This is the same coworker trying to hit me up for my tax money. This isn't the first second nor third time she's come and ask me for some real money! I blogged about this twice already, and I gotta do it again! She had some kind of issue this morning and she rolled up and asked me if I could loan her the money so she could get some tires. I mean really, I am not her man. I am not her bank. I am her friend, but we not "let me borrow a few hundred dollars" friends, more like, "my gas tank is on E and my big baller "boyfriend" don't get paid till next Friday, can you let me hold 40-50 bucks till next week" type friends. I even asked one of my co workers that I am cool with if I give off the image that I'm flossing like that. She said no, and I agree. I already described what I got on. I hardly ever wear name brands and when I do it's because it was 8 out of 10 times a gift. I don't drive a fancy car, just a busted bucket. I never talk about how I went shopping and spent such and such amount on such and such. I am keeping my head above the water like mostly everyone else! Why keep asking me for money? I don't have it like that yet. My time is comming and when it does I would be more than happy to help her. But it's not my time to floss and bling, not right now!
I told her I didn't have it and she asked me if I had a credit card. I said yeah, but I got a really low credit limit. She asked for my limit! Insane I tell yah! LOL I told her that I'd check my balance and get back with her so she'll leave my office. I waited a few minutes, to act like I was checking my balance. Then I called her and told her I was maxed out cuz I put my Easter trip to DC on my card and I didn't have anything left. *I don't like to lie, but I did*
I wish I knew a way to let her know that I will never give her real money like that. I did hook her up years ago, but she was really in a situation and at the time I was at a point where me not seeing the money again wouldn't hurt me.
I like her as a friend and she is a decent person. I just don't like that she thinks I am an ATM and that her paying me back at the end of the month (mind you it's 5/5) will make everything okay!
Now ain't THAT some ish!

Southern - I guess so, cuz that's what happend here! Turned in my app @ lunch yesterday, had my interview @ 2 and got the offer @ 3:55! They had the nerve to tell me not to tell anyone till the process is complete downtown! Sucky part about it is I don't think they are gonna let me keep my office :-( They were shocked I didn't want a window. Darn a flippin window! I like my lil hole in the wall!
LOL, Big Chips is crazy girl! She even asked me how to get a credit card at the company I got mine. I gave her the number, we'll see what she does with it. I don't know why she just won't do a loan advance, the credit union here has very low interest rates to do a loans. I have had to do an advance a time or two, ain't no shame in it!
Okay let me stop blogging in my comment box! Have a good weekend Southern!
Yes that is definitely some ish! I'm LOL @ your vivid description of your outfit - hehehe.
I can't believe that you got the offer that quick! Wow, they wasted not a second, but thats great.
Congrats girlie, you deserve the best!
that is some sh*t, but I'm still trippin on how you found out that you have an interview in basically two hours...for me, an interview takes some mental preparation at least overnight...
UM, WHY MY NEW CO-WORKER I JUST KNOWN FO RABOUT 8 DAYS NOW ASKED ME TO BORROW 50 DOLLARS ON HER PAYDAY. I GAGGED AND TOLD HER THERE WAS A BANK OF AMERICA ACROSS THE STREET...I heard company checks were drawn on that bank!
I don't get the blacks...
when someone asks you to borrow money like that
tell them Trent Jackson said:
"Put That Where? Back There!"
Congrats on your new job and thank you for leaving me...well I'll send you an email.
Xtc - I do deserve the best and I will have the best! Believe that!
GQ - ME TOO! That's why I was bugging out! I knew I was gonna pretty much get the job, I just couldn't get my nerves right.
Trent - what is it w/the blacks? LOL
Now if you had said "No, Hell No! I ain't loaning you nothing," she would never ask you again.
But that's how my mean ass would have handled it.
TDRT - ROFL your right, but I couldn't do that. I do like her as a person. :-)
Looks like Blogger don't like me today, I'll blog later about my weekend.
OH MY GOODNESS...i totally missed this post!
i cannot believe that woman asked you for money like that! lawd, lawd, lawd...i gotta breath slow on that one.
how'd the interview go?
man, nay, you gonna have to tell her..."I am not B of BC (Bank of Blue Chips) and I'm a single parent. I can't loan you money like that and would rather you ask someone else." translation - Don't ask me no mo.
