It's True

Okay, so I like Hanson.

Post Exam Blues

Mood: disappointed

First of all, as I mentioned in my post exam audio entry, I feel pretty good about how I did on the test. And yet I can't help feeling like I wasted my time. I know just the opposite is true, but the idea of sitting around for three months not even knowing how I did isn't sitting well with me.

I guess I had built up this fantasy that the Postal Service would save me from a hellish Christmas season at Prints Plus. Now I know there's not even a shadow of a hope for that. Hell, I'll be lucky to get an interview by March!

I'm really disappointed it's going to take so long--can't ya tell?--but I'm just going to have to forget I even took the test. Then, if and when I hear something, it will be a pleasant surprise.

In the meantime, I will be looking at other opportunities. I can't place all my bets on getting a job with the USPS. At least, not any time soon.

Speaking of bets, I bet ya a year passes before I'm ever hired. But back to my optimistic self, I will get a job with the United States Postal Service. Time--perhaps quite a lot of it--will prove me right.

Postal Exam Eve

Mood: confident

I am going to wake up at 4:30AM to leave the house at 5:30AM to take the postal exam at 7:30AM. Then, four hours of testing. And after that, to celebrate, I will lunch with Bella. It's very likely I will do an audio post before and after the exam.

I was nervous earlier today, but now I feel quite confident. I do need some sleep, though. So I better stop blogging and start sleeping!

Bertram has full control of the remote. He just lets me use it.

Perhaps Bertram is a size 10?

Sometimes fur isn't enough.

Bertram loves Tom & Jerry...
