As usual I was up early this morning to go see my doctorMy sister and I set off for my 9 20am appointment And she went for a walk with the dogs While I headed in to the surgeryI had my application for the job with meWhich I filled out last nightAnd went over it as I sat in the waiting roomI needed two references So I put my elderly neighbor as oneI needed one moreSo I made a call to the pizzeria owner I used to work forI got his wife Who said that was absolutely fine It really pays off doing the right thingAnd having someone who can give you a reliable character witnessAs I rang off My doctor called me in I followed him in to his roomWhere I settled in my usual seatI had thought about asking him for a reference But I don't know if that would be appropriate So I decided against itWe talked for a few minutes I told him about the jobAnd he seemed genuinely delighted for meHe said that he hopes to retire there when he's older Gosh wouldn't the tables turn if that was the caseHe wished me good luckAnd to me that I am too talented to be sitting around doing nothing I thought that was a nice thing to say I collected my script And headed for the pharmacy
After handing in my script to the pharmacist I decided to head over to where the job isAnd hand in my applicationIt was busier todayI walked to the kitchen Where the staff usually areI knocked on the doorSomeone answered and said they would introduce me to the manager I spoke to her for a few minutesShe was really lovely She told me that there were loads of applications My heart sank a bit when she said that She said they would go through all the applications this weekAnd that they wouldn't be calling everyone for interview But the would let me know one way or another next weekI thanked herAnd headed back to the pharmacy
You know me I get very excited about thingsAnd this job is something I would loveBut now I'm thinking I probably my shouldn't get my hopes upAs so many have appliedThe manager dos ask me if I was available for an interviewAnd if I could start straight away Does that mean I'm going to be called?Or did she ask everyone that?I just dont know I guess now it's a waiting gameAnd we all know how I'm not very good at waiting But I have no other choiceAt least I know that I did my bestAnd gave it a good shotI could do no moreThis is the first job I've applied for in years So if nothing else It's been good experienceBut you guys I just can't help getting my hopes upI just have this really good feeling about this placeAnd this job It's some thing I could really sink my teeth in to And I can't lieI will be bitterly disappointment if it doesn't work out
In other newsI am feeling a lot better the last few days Physically I feel almost back to myself And my mood has picked up tooMy weight has stayed the same for the past two weeks With no losses to report So that is good Although if I were to get this jobI need to gain a bit Or at the very least maintain where I am at It's all motivation to get wellAnd stay wellI guess I need to have a back up if this job doesn't work out Whether that be another jobA course Volunteer work I think I will wait to hear from themAnd go from thereWhatever happens It's a learning experience And I can use that in the next job I apply for So please think of meAnd wish me luck It looks like I'm going to need it....
