Yet another interview
I’m going to be honest. I don’t want to go. I’ve done so much interviewing with organizations that don’t even bother to let me know what they’ve decided. I don’t know where I’m going wrong in all this. I just have to whine about this a little bit, get the negativity out of my own head so I can put on my interview suit, get my good attitude on, and get employed. It’s just emotionally grueling.
Ok, onward.

I’ve always disliked that as well. You go to the interview, wait for a week or more and then have to decide yourself that you didn’t get the job. Seems like common courtesy would be to let people know you offered the job to someone else, which is what I do. It’s really hard to do, because I think nice people dislike to say “no” to someone. Isn’t it funny how they’ll go to great lengths not to disappoint or say no, and by saying nothing they’re doing something just as egregious.
To me, that’s right up there with the realization that it’s okay for your boss, doctor, whoever, to keep you waiting but it’s NOT okay for you to be late. Mutual consideration of the other person is a good thing.
