Google Update

Back in April I applied at Google to become a “Book Search Operations Technician” for their new Ann Arbor facility. I had an in-person interview in June, and two phone interviews in mid-July (same week as the “Day From Hell” post). Today I got an email from the recruiter stating that I didn’t get the job.
I have to say that I am not really impressed by their hiring process. I didn’t hear anything about my application (and actually forgot about it) until a recruiter contacted me in early June to set up the first interview. Also, unless I had a specific question, I got no feedback or response to my “just touching base” emails after the interviews. Granted, I didn’t make an extreme effort to keep in touch with them either, but it would have been nice if they had let me know what was going on, or what the next step in the process was. I feel kind of “led on” and like the last four and a half months were wasted on waiting for them to get back to me.
I guess this means I will be staying in Traverse City for awhile yet.

ok, that was cheesy. 
My life has been sacrificed to work and housework. in fact, right now I am letting dishes and laundry go undone just so I can sit here and type this and eat popcorn. Bart thinks I am ignoring him – but honey, at least I’m not doing work stuff!!
I thought after college was over all I had to do was go to work and come home every day and I would have plenty of “free” time to do stuff. now I’m like “free time? what’s that?”
things I want to do this year:
- fix my finances (too many credit cards, eesh!)
- look for a house
- exercise more (any exercise would be more than I do now, which is none)
- have more fun

I’m listening to Gina G – remember her from 1997? “Oooh, ah, just a little bit..” Ah, the one thing that doesn’t really change from decade to decade, cheesy pop music. 
I’m going to cross-post this to my website, LJ, and MySpace.. please don’t kill me 0:)
