the world turns
Busy day today. At least I am in that kind of mindset. I always consider it as such when I have to go meet people for business and not pleasure.
I got a call Saturday (yep, on Black Saturday, imagine that!). Someone who used to work with a company I applied with last year was offering me a job. A high-paying one. Or so she said. I wasn't even curious to find out what the job entails. It's like the minute she uttered the words I knew it was just like banking. I have said goodbye to it and have no plans of going back. No, it is not banking. Financial services.
Two weeks ago I was feeling desperate to get out. Now I get a job offer and all I could muster was "Umm....I see. OK. Thank you very much. I'll call you soon about my decision." when she asked if I was available for a meeting on Sunday. Easter Sunday, no less. Who the heck skeds a biz meeting on Easter Sunday?! She must not be Catholic or Christian.
Anyway, I have relented and here we are. Business dinner at 6:30pm. I am curious about the whole financial and benefits package. Who knows?
