I had an interview on Monday and it went really well, the hiring manager said she really wanted me on the team and I should hear back by Tuesday. Didn't hear back by Tuesday, so on Wednesday I called them. They said the hiring manager was off for the next two days, call back on Friday after 1pm. I call at 2:15pm, the hiring manager has gone to the bank, call back in 10-15 minutes. If she's gone when I call back in about 30 minutes I'm just going to think she's avoiding me. Why is getting a job literal torture? This is a job at McDonald's btw.

Update: I have orientation on Monday!!

#i hate! job hunting!! it feels like a sick game that only god and hiring managers are in on #ive had tremendous luck with jobs in the past. my favorite job was in a truck stop kitchen #originally i was hired at the arbys connected to it. but i hit it off so well with the kitchen manager that she asked to keep me #i was hired at that arbys on the spot. and then snatched by the kitchen bcuz i was cool #is this the universe repaying me for having that luck? i was lucky so now it needs to be balanced with shit experiences?#job hunting in Philadelphia (where i used to live) was hell too #youd think itd be easier. so many jobs available. but none of them responded to applications or followed up after interviews #and to be clear. im working on moving states soon. so even though i just got this job #soon im going to have to get another. go through all of this again #i feel like Sisyphus but my boulder is jobs. im in hell #but at least i have a job. boulder is at the top of the hill. for now
