I Did One Brave Thing Today
There was a company that I applied to thinking I would like the job. They called me telling me that they were interested. Then I did an interview with them and realized that I would not like to do what the job entailed. I should have been brave and told them that after that interview but I didn't. I did a second interview yesterday that lasted almost an hour. I didn't like that they were asking me all of these personal questions about me. I was completely fake the entire interview acting like I would love working there. When they kept asking me what I want in the job, I didn't know what to say. I embellished and said this would be good for character but I was totally lying. After that interview, I still wasn't confident that I would like the job. I am supposed to do another interview for it this Friday. This morning, I just emailed the woman who interviewed me and told her that something came up and that I am no longer interested in the position. I blocked her phone number and e-mail. Hopefully they won't try to contact me again. I apologized in the email for wasting their time. But I realized that I am tired of interviewing for jobs that I don't think I would like to do just because the pay might be good. I HAVE to like it. Maybe that will take me a while to do but I have to believe it is worth the wait. I do feel guilty about going through two interviews and then shutting them down but I would rather quit during the interview stage than for them to hire me and then I quit after a week. And at least my parents didn't know about these interviews or all hell would break loose and they would tell me I was stupid for saying no to a job opportunity. But hopefully I find something that I would like doing.
