Employment
Wahoo!
I had an interview as a proofreader at an ad agency. It's for "freelance or permanent" work, and I still am not quite sure what "freelance" means when you're in the office 35 hours a week with your own office with a door. Anyway, I called today to thank the interviewer for having me in, and she said that I aced the proofreading test. She's not sure when she'll need me, because of the nature of the workload, but she is giving my name to a friend of hers at another agency. Folks, I'm employable!
Wahoo! I think I'll take the day off to celebrate.

I am still mad that I never got an interview when I applied as a proofreader at the Manistee Observer that one year I was home. I had a freakin' English degree and they never called me back, even after I called them and they said they would. Bastards.
In any case, you are a better proofreader than I, so they should hire you. It will be their downfall if they fail to do so. ;-)
