That title up above is a phrase that me and some of my buddies have been saying to each other for a long time. It's exactly as it sounds. Don't question certain things, just ride them out. Oh, and I have to add, you better laugh out loud while it's going on, whatever 'it' is.
In this case, it's my job search. Here's an update, and you can now picture me shaking my head...
Project Manager-this would be for a health care provider in Denver. They have all sorts of customized software that needs to be updated and they have no idea where to start. I had the initial interview this morning. It went well, they'll be in touch.
Sales Exec-so after sitting down with a buddy for some breakfast after my interview, I get a bagel and then the text messages start flowing from a friend and from someone regarding my blog postings. And then the phone rings, and it's a company that wants to talk to me tomorrow about selling their managed network services (for those that are bored by that-it means outsourced IT fun).
Project Coordinator-a 2 month contract that would have paid sick went with an internal person.
Data PR Manager-I should have a phone interview for a real estate web company. I would be working with a buddy of mine from college, and I think I'd get to stay in Denver. If not, I would have to pack up for the Bay Area. Hilarious.
Add to it like 4 other roles friends have fired off to me telling me I'd be a great fit for the role. However funny or unfunny it may be, I know for a fact 2 of those people want me to tell their boss to go piss up a flagpole.
But not as funny as this last one. I just got off the phone with a contact of mine who put me in for a Customer Tech Support person at their company, I'll get a phone interview tomorrow. It's in Natick, MA. You have got to be kidding me.....
