Our director Christy was ticked at Trevor and I although she addressed ALL of us about what we were doing. She said basically that we weren't putting forth the effort the missionaries were to get the jobs we wanted. I wanted to scream at her but it was better to say nothing. She said she was led by the spirit to tell us that. How the hell are you supposed to argue with that? I am really putting forth the effort. I haven't incorporated my zumba and eating healthy again which I know will help but I certainly didn't need her attitude. Some bishop called her and wanted to know what was happening. I wonder if it was my bishop.

Maybe she feels we need a kick in the pants. Whatever. I just did not appreciate how she was acting. I am happy whenever anyone has success BUT when I HAVE been working my butt off to try to reach the metrics they've developed for us it is frustrating when nothing's happened yet.

I went to the U's job fair. It was impressive. When I was there I attended job fairs but they were nothing like this. I made a point to meet the Biofire recruiter. Her name is Kim and I appreciated very much what she told me. She said whoever was hired would be starting from scratch and putting the whole system together EXACTLY what I like. I looove any assignment where I am in charge of creating something new. I want that job.

I also applied for an editor/office manager position at Friendemic. It sounds like an amazing company to work for and they're located downtown. She looked at me condescendingly and questioned my editing skills. My name and appearance don't lead people to believe I can do that. They look at me and my name and assume stupidly English is my second language. When I encounter people like that I just think racist condescending dingbat. YES I do go there because people go there all the damn time with me. I wonder if she'll even give me an interview. I hope she does and I hope I can change her stupid initial assumption.
