Feeling Hopeful

I have an interview today at a gym called Fitness Lady. It's a chain around here, not sure if it is out of the state though. I am pretty hopeful about this one, although the job is not perfect. It will only be part time work until January, and starting pay is not spectacular. But, it's getting my foot in the door in a field I want to work in, and I can always pick up a second part time job as well.

This is my first official interview with them, although I did speak with their training manager last week. I called to ask them what certification programs they recommend to their employees, and made it very clear that I have every intention of pursuing this further. I am hoping that they will remember that and it works in my favor.

There are some great things about this job that make me want it, part-time or not.

  1. My mother works from home just down the street, and has volunteered to watch F for me until the job becomes full-time
  2. It is literally across the street from a local community college, which would make it really easy for me to take classes once we are settled in
  3. They have another location that is down the street from where we are living now, and told me that, if I am working with them, it is very possible to be transferred to the other location in January.
This is what I want, so wish me luck!
