Orchestrated Chaos

Pushing my own buttons.

I'm not taking it personal!

Well, as you might know, I've been scouring for a job.

Monday I applied for something that I considered a shoe-in (is that really how you spell it?). A van driver for a Rochester hotel. Airport shuttle and bringing people to local attractions. When I filled out the application I saw that I was practically made for the job. I have the cleanest driving record possible. Never an accident in the 15 years I have been driving. Extremely familiar with Rochester and the surrounding area (drive somewhere once and I remember forever). Years and years of customer service experience.

Once I started thinking that the "van driver" probably spends more time talking to and assisting guests then the jokers at the front desk even come close to.

I guess I really shot myself when I listed $13-$15 an hour as my required salary. I figured since they said "don't write negotiable", I would write something a little high, and then they would come back with a lower figure and then we could meet somewhere in the middle. I guess I have been out of the job hunt biz for too long.
