Hmm a lost Job Description
I can't find a job description for that job that's really in Alabama, not Nebraska as previously stated. All I know about it is that GIS is important, so is Wetland Ecology, and Wetland Regulations, both state, and national. I did save my letter, so I know who I talked to, and what I wrote in it, so Ill just have to wing it for the interview.
Now, do I really want to move to Alabama, no. But Butler County is on the tip of it, on the ocean. According to the Wikipedia thing, average income is like 35000 dollars, and its poverty rate is 7.9, which isn't that bad. The environmental personnel comes mostly from Alabama, but there seems to be some who have worked in New York, and a few other places, so that's exciting. So, if I get offered a position, I might actually take it.
As for Linn County, Oregon, I put in an application, and the nice person I sent it to sent me an email confirming that my application was received. That was nice. Now I'm not obsessing about if it was received or not. I called the Duluth lady from the Arrowhead region commission organization which deals with the Duluth and Superior, and she was out and will be back in on Monday. So I left a message, and hopefully she pulls out my application to look at it and call me back. The Duluth Job is the one I really want.
Right now, the things that are holding me back are my lack of skills in communication, such as giving a presentation to stakeholders, and generally explaining things to people who are paying the bill. Its really frustrating because I Know that I can do a good job with this aspect of it, but because I have a hard time in interviews because I don't think fast, I don't get jobs.
On another Note, I think I made the horrible bitchy lady cry at work. She came over, and asked did I move this permit for house when I split to parcels. I said no. I then asked what the new numbers were and she's like there right here. And I'm like no, those are the old parcel, and we went back and forth like that for a bit. And then she asked how would I like to see these permits, and I almost said, "I don't care, do whatever, because I don't plan on staying much longer". I didn't. Its a good thing. Then I went to lunch. Then I came back from lunch, and I saw her wipe a tear away. I kind of apologized, because I was mean and felt a little bad about it (not much, just enough to know I did wrong), and I explained that I wanted the Parcel ID numbers of the split parcels, not the new Geocoded numbers (which we just converted to two weeks ago). So it was a lack of communication. I don't feel guilty about it. She pretty stupid, and I don't enjoy working with her.
With Love Carrie
