I have an interview to be a clerk at a family law firm. It is enough for us to live on should I get the job. But not enough for us when some of my loan payments start in January. However, without this job or something like it we will deplete the money we have in saving by Christmas because Bridget will not be working at all after the next couple of weeks. Of course, should I get the job it could turn into an associate position and then we would be fine financially. I don't know about the area of law, but whatever. I am eager just to do any field just as long as it uses more of my brain that is being used currently.
Oh and the job at the employment and labor law firm is still undecided. I interviewed there about 9 weeks ago. Don't ask what I think about that process.
UPDATE: The people were very nice, but I have no interest in this job. It is not really a law clerk position. It is an office assistant job. Making copies. Making coffee. Cleaning up crap. Running miscellaneous errands for real attorneys. Between this, the employment law firm that can't seem to figure out if they want to hire me or not after 9 weeks, and no other options in the immediate horizon I am about ready to give the world the middle finger.
And please no comments about things will get better or that you feel bad for us or whatever. I am sick of that stuff too. Sick of others feeling like necessary to try and cheer us up about this situation. I mean I want to feel better about this whole deal, but I just don't want any sympathy right now. I just want a decent job. I now have to compete with a whole new round of graduates because it has taken so long. Awesome, freaking awesome.
