Dear, dear TC,
I canNOT believe how much your boss SUCKS. Oh BOY - I could use some absolutely CHOICE language & would love to say it to her face. And I'm serious!.
Gawd TC - if only you can get another job. I would love to see you out of there.
>So if he calls back, I'm going to tell him I was afraid I mislead him to think I had more experience than I actually do,
********Please be careful how you word it. There are positive ways! don't say you mislead him hun. You can say that you are so interested in working there that...hm....well, that you - i'm not sure! But try to put a positive spin on it! I know - so interested in working there, that you were totally willing to learn whatever you needed to, & then on giving it further thought, you realized that in certain areas, they would need someone to jump in & take over (whatever you said in your post...) All the other stuff you said sounded good.Keep us 'posted' & please try to put on a HARD SKIN...realizing that your boss is at best a very mean, cruel, troubled person & that your co-worker knows this & is probably trying to cover her *** & keep in boss's good books - NOT nice, but probably true.
Please try to know in your mind that you do NOT respect them & that you are being treated abominably.
I send you BIG cyberhugs,
much love, Kath
but if he is looking for somebody who picks up things quickly and has a vast knowledge of different areas of graphic design, then I'm the one for him. But if he wants someone who's going to just jump right in and start running things, I can't honestly say I could do that. I mean, this is stuff like running printing presses and image setters and just all kinds of crap I wouldn't have a clue how to handle. But I will make sure to impress upon him that if he wants someone hardworking, diligent, reliable, and won't quit no matter what, then give me a shot.
