Job Interview Outfit.

Last week, I had a job interview (I didn't tell anyone, so you're not out of the loop). I turned down a second interview because I didn't feel it was something I could commit to.

Skirt/shirt: BR outlet // Sweater: Loft outlet 
(I'm working on a better set-up.  This camera angle is doing nothing for me.)

I swear I'm not crazy.  I want a job. This job was for the local school district (not teaching), but working well into the evening, as well as all day long.  It would've looked awesome on a resume...but the pay was not worth the hours (and responsibility) it required.  I have this new puppy...I have a husband who's not deployed...I have friends here (crazy, right?)...I want a job, but I want a job that is a good fit.  If I had to work until 7pm everyday (uh huh, that's right), I'd feel very resentful of the job, I think.  Substitute teaching, here I come.

Anyway, it was a good interview experience...I've still got the ability to interview somewhat well!  That's kind of relieving after 3 years at the same job.

Also, I got to wear my new Banana Republic Outlet skirt ($14!) and shirt ($12!).  It was nice to think about putting on professional clothes.  I knew that trip to the outlets in Branson would be worthwhile.

I think "Unreasonably excited for Banana Republic Outlet clearance possibilities" would easily fit into this 30 Signs You're Almost 30 list.  < Enjoy that.
