tired of waiting!
Somebody (an interviewer) was supposed to call me at 2. It's 2:37 right now and I'm still waiting! AURGH!!!!!! That's not to mention another phone call from an interview I had last week that I'm expecting...or not....

And damnit, by the time this person finally does call me, the TV show I stuck my kids in front of will be over. :mad:

1. How rude!
That's why I'm always deliberately vague about when I say I'll call. "Er, I'l call you tomorrow afternoon." :-)

3. well, she asked me what time she could call.
She called me out-of-the-blue while I was fixing lunch for the kids; obviously, I couldn't talk undisturbed then. She asked when would be a good time to call back. I should have told her to give me 30 minutes, 'cuz that's all I really needed. Oh well.

2. Who are "The Kinks"?
Oh sorry - thought I was in the Jeopardy! thread.

Hope you get your call soon, KCDem :thumbsup:

4. I'm still waiting!
Should I give up? Should I call her? Basically, I'd sent off a resume last week sometime. The call for resumes said the deadline was Feb. 28th, so I wasn't really expecting to hear anything yet (actually, I wasn't expecting to hear anything at all; the job's a bit of a stretch) but a woman called me today while I was dealing with screaming kids. Maybe I wasn't as charming as I should have been earlier? If she said she'd call back, it means she'll call back, right?

AURGH!

6. I'd say if the kids are quiet and you have time to talk - call her.
Just to be sure you hadn't "missed her call" or to confirm or whatever.

Why not?

8. I can't, unfortunately
I didn't get her exact #. I'm checking the website, and the number called to my cell phone earlier was from a different department. Damn.
