Job hunting, II
I had quite an exciting morning. My interview with Texas State University was scheduled for 9 a.m. The phone rang at 8:45. Guess who it was! The personnel manager from Brazoria County Library System. Yep, they offered me the job at the salary I requested on my application. I asked for a day to consider it.
On one hand, I'm extremely flattered and proud of myself. On the other hand, I am incredibly excited about the prospect of the TSU job. Even more so now that I've had the chance to talk to them. So, I'm going to call BCLS in the morning and decline their offer. I have thought long and hard about it. I've come to this conclusion: If BCLS was my only option, I would take the job. But at this point, I'd rather wait on TSU. I think I would regret taking BCLS and later finding out that TSU would hire me more than I would regret not taking BCLS and later finding out that TSU would not hire me.
If TSU doesn't hire me, I'll just start over. I still have University of Georgia in the wings, and there will be other postings, I'm sure.
