I am a sky rocket...

Out of first gear...
Just finished my interview w/ the acting Hr Dept Manager dude(our usual dept manager is out because she just had a baby, yay) and I would have to say that the interview went rather well. I'm not too keen on exactly how internal job application procedures work, but this is only stage one...probably to get a feel for me and my personality, as the questions were very non-technical. The tech questions will come next week, and I wonder what they will ask, being that I haven't done very much as far as hardwiring and assembly is concerned. I haven't seen much either, other than wiring a harness and such, which I feel I am quite adept at doing now. So, I'm gonna try and ask around what kind of stuff I need to know for my tech interview, w/o sounding too kiss-assy. And hopefully things will go well. As long as I really pushed hard and tried my best, then it'll be okay...that's what I'll tell myself if I don't get it, he he he. But all kidding aside, I really really want this position, I want to stay w/ this company, and even from talking to the HR guy, he really liked it here too and says there aren't many companies like this one...so pleeeeeeeeeease....if you're listening, hook me up! he he he

Words...
Funny how when we were younger we used to say things like, "Sticks and stones can break my bones but names will never hurt me." I think that that statement couldn't be further from the truth some of the time. Not ALL the time, but some of the time, I think that words can really hurt...and conversely, make one feel better. It's amazing the power a few words of encouragement can have on a person...it really is. How you can say something and make someone's day...how you can say something to people and they open a door, and let you in...simply amazing. Words have more power than we think, sometimes...
