What?!?!? I Got The Job?!?!?!?
So, the six month interview is finally over, and if you can believe it, I got the job!!!!
I'm still in shock, because I had done that thing I always do, convinced myself of all the reasons I wouldn't, couldn't, shouldn't get the job, so that I would not really be that disappointed when I didn't get it, but this time I did get it, so now I'm in an unfamiliar state, one of: Holy Crap! How did that happen!!!!
I'm taking a moment to savour the feeling.
Anyway, now that it is official, I don't feel that it will be a jinx to say that I am going to be a 911 Operator.
Doesn't sound glamorous to you? Too bad. It is a job that to me finally feels like more than just a job. It finally feels like a career that I can do, do well, and make a difference for other people while I am doing it.
So, now I am starting a new chapter.
I haven't done that in a while either. So this bodes well. It is a jumpstart out of the rut that I have put myself in, and perhaps the last chance I'm going to get to start again. I've done that so many times now, I was starting to think I wasn't going to get another opportunity to do so. I am very grateful that I am getting this chance.
Wish me luck!
