i just had a job interview and this is my poem about......wait for it my job interview.
__________________________________________________
Sitting, waiting, longing to escape
Sweaty palms form as you stay
Nervousness takes over your mind
You long to run and never return

But to get that money you wait
For the interviewer to call your name
As you look around at the others
You feel even more nervous

She calls you name and you long to die
As you walk in the door and it slams shut
She asks you the questions you already know
And the nervousness runs away from you

Then as you near the end she says
This was the first interview to take
With the easy questions out of the way
The second interview you await

The questions will be harder than before
And nervousness comes flooding back
Knocking on your door as you stand
And you say goodbye and shake her hand

I remember those times! I was always a nervous wreck before a job interview! Now I'm my own boss and I am very gentle with myself!  

Wishing you lots of good luck with your interviews! Just be yourself!

Warm hugs,
EA

     Everybody needs the money.  Sometimes it helps to think about the kind of job that you'd like to eliminate right from the start.  Having had a couple of those, I can tell you that I wish I'd sorted them out in the job interviews myself before I'd actually started working there.  So, what kind of job would you wish you hadn't accepted, and maybe you can at least think of what you're looking for for in addition to a pay check.  It could save you a lot of wear and tear down the line.
