Dog tired
The words "you got the job" are an oasis in the desert. I was locked into a security role at one site until another security company took the site over. The contract officially was up for our company at midnight. I was the last Allied Barton employee to work there. We were all promised a position elsewhere. Some of us were left on the outside looking in. I was one of them.

Today I interviewed for a position at sprint and was told that I got the job. Part of me was bitter. I had been looking forward to a position that would not engender so much anxiety. Why was I not one of the lucky ones? I was faced with an interview and if that did not work out, then what? Now I jump through the normal hoops to finish the process and fight through more anxiety in a quest to know the job and be comfortable in performing the tasks.

On a positive not I was contacted by my daughter Julie. I had not heard from her for several weeks. She will be going to Iowa in less than two weeks. It should be interesting juggling all my adventures. I want to see Julie. I need time with my wife and then hope to deal with my family back East starting August 5th. My mom is dying and at the moment I feel dog tired. It reflects my activities of the last ten days taking care of friend's dog and cat. I am glad they will be back today. I say it with emphasis I AM DOG TIRED!!!
