Well, I was ready yesterday (Monday) to spray the entire state with my resume just so I can find a job that'll spring me out of my current one. Little did I know that it would take a second phone call.
It was to the other test scoring place. I was just going to check up and see if they have my application, even though I had worked for them each of the past five years. Much to my surprise it wasn't some HR chick but the head man of last year's scoring project. And man, he hooked me up. He told me that the scoring project from last year was still on, but he was nice enough to present to me another set of tests that he says should be longer in length. I was surprised to hear him steer me away from his own project, but I think it's a testament to him as a person to let me in on the whole truth to someone who is trying to maximize the money he wants to make. Also, upon reflection and to be honest, he wasn't the strongest leader when he was running the room last year. And you know, I just remembered that he was the one who was heading up that two-week project that turned into a two-day one. So maybe getting away from him is a good thing.
What I was afraid was not going to come through actually did come through in less than a day. So now I just have to gin up the courage to tell everybody I need to tell without tipping the wrong people off as to why. But you know something? I'm starting to feel guilty about leaving. Not guilty enough to change my mind; this was still a raw deal that I have no choice but to walk away from. But I'll miss those guys. Not the BS situation, but those guys.
