everything (everyone) has it's place.

last friday, i got a telephone call from raphael at the public allies office wondering if i'd be interested in going on an interview in brookfield at the kidney association. this was a completely unsolicited placement offer from an organization i know nothing about. moderately hesitant, i said i would go.

initially, after the red cross interview with veronica, she said i would know about the position by thursday. well, i got the call from p.a. (from now on, p.a. is public allies) on friday, but without mention of the red cross postion was made.

i didn't want to assume i didn't get the position, so i asked. raphael said it was still an option. i was left hanging. i agreed to give the interview out of sheer concern of not being placed.

this morning, i decided to give a call follow-up call to the red cross. when i spoke with veronica again, she said i had the job*. it's pretty exciting. i get to set my own hours, and i get to talk to people about safety.

*i kept my acceptance letter, as well as the job description. note my sheer delight; the possibilities are endless.
