On the Upside

Last night was the "seal-the-deal" meeting with my job. Now they're stuck with me.

And after three visits to the place, you'd think I'd have seen my work space by now, right? ........I had to ask. Even then he gave me an apprehensive, "Oh, you want to see it tonight?" I should have known when he said, "Give me a minute, and I'll see if there's a meeting going on down there."

Down there? Was there a dungeon I failed to notice in the original tour?

So he came back and the coast was clear, and to my relief he assured me there were no staircases in the building.

But we did enter an interesting room. ...I choose the term "interesting", because it will definitely be a new experience to me. There are about 16 cubicles lining the walls and about zero privacy.

I knew that this job wouldn't provide me with the office-with-a-window that I had at my last job. Actually, I couldn't expect that from any position I was applying for.

I guess the reality is just sinking in.

On the upside, there are about 14 interview rooms which are basically small offices that you go to meet with your potential students in. I suppose that will give me a little room to stretch my legs.

Oh and hey! It's a job.
