job interview, part deux

so, i set up that interview for 11:00 on fri, that was good and all, and you already know about that. as the day progressed, i did what i've been doing for the last week, find jobs and apply for them. if i had to guess, i would have to say close to 40 resumes have been sent out in total, 5 or so just today. the way it normally work is i find jobs at this site, winejobs.com. it is part of the largest wine industry publication, wine business monthly. after i find a job, i do a little research on the winery, or whatever the job is and then i decide whether i want to send them my resume. one of the places i researched and applied to today is called the vintner's collective. it is a tasting room for 18 napa wineries that don't have tasting rooms of their own, along with some other local wines available for sale there. the place looked awesome, and i thought what a great way to make some contacts in the industry, so i sent in my resume. the owner of the joint has already called me back and i now have two interviews on fri. like i said the one interview was good, but his one really helped pick me up out of my funk. i mentioned briefly about this job in my last post, but i had yet to research it and see what it was all about, but a full time position, 401k, and a gym membership to go along with everything else. if you want to see this place, www.vintnerscollective.com. i said i was scared about the other place, but i don't feel the same about this job, now i'm very excited, i don't know. it feels like i'm just rambling and typing so i'll stop now.

pretty damn cool man. if you get work up there, we'll have someone's floor to throw up wine on.


who am i kidding? we don't visit people. we're jerks.
 
That is really great! It sounds like a wonderful opportunity.
 
You should be excited, it does sound like a really great opportunity and to have them contact you so quickly is impressive. Well done my friend!

By the way, when are you going to change your blog name, I vote for sherbert tights. Heehee, it still makes me laugh even when I am sober:)
