Apple's just not right... right now
I had my second interview with Apple today. I've been waivering about that job over the weekend given what happened this weekend in Sac (GOOD THINGS!) but I was just confused about my place still in this life, and something just didn't feel right. Basically, the job just didn't fit what I was looking for, and I had a great conversation with the manager and we both agreed. But he was hecka cool and sent my resume to someone else within the company.
But what I'm trying to say is that, I just have the feeling that if I did take this job, even though it didn't match me, I'd be making the same "mistake" that I made when I went to the Gap. Mistake not in the fact that I regret taking the job. It was a GREAT job and afforded me great opportunities to grow into a marketable person to find a stable job, but at the same time, I was looking at another job that would've taken me away from being what I want to be... a playwright. Last night, I had a great conversation with someone I considered like a second dad. I value his experience in life and I'm really lucky that he took the time to talk to me. Thank you. But he really pinned down what I should do and what would I be sacrificing by taking any job that comes next. I'm just glad that the interview went well and I didn't have to say that I didn't want to take the job because of X reason or another. It worked out. I'm still unemployed, however my direction is more defined and I'm more determined to go after what I want and what I need to do to get it. Quoting from a lyric from Legally Blonde, the musical... there's a Chip on My Shoulder... and I'm gonna be driven as hell!
ciao!
