Eseme's Den

I graduate at 9:00 AM tomorrow.

I *thought* I had 2 1\2 weeks to pack up and move.

Then I got a phone call. The job I applied for last week wants to interview me. In Maine. Around the 28th of May. Well, that cuts out some time. And the person who is retiring will be around until the end of June to help train the new hire. Which means if I got the job it would likely start a week or two after the interview.

Which would mean it would make more sense to just move most of my stuff to Maine rather than Rochester.

And I could have another interview, for the island position, around that time as well.

Of course with my luck, both positions would say "We've decided to hire someone else" and then I would be stuck with most of my stuff in Maine but no Maine job.

Or, alternatively, I would get offered both jobs and have to choose between a very cool two year stint on an Island not getting paid much, versus a job that pays OK, is on the mainland, and given that the person who phoned me today said "I've been here ten years and it's like I'm the new kid on the block" is very likely to have longevity.

Either way, not sure what to do - drive a U-Haul up to Maine and then if I get neither job drive back to Rochester with a carload of clothes and other necessities?

Plus this means I could vanish out of Rochester much faster than I was planning to. ... Or not. It's very hard to tell as these are just possibilities, not definites.

I'm not thrilled with the uncertainty.
