Reschedule reschedule

Arrgh.

On Monday I had set up an interview with a company in the area I live in.  Thankfully this means I don’t have to estimate really the transportation time, as it’s only at maximum a ten minute drive from my house.  The interview (second interview actually) was set for 1:30pm today.

At 10am I received a phone call (that I didn’t answer because my phone wasn’t loud enough for me to hear) asking if I could come in for 1pm instead of 1:30pm, as the interviewer’s afternoon had suddenly become busy.  I agreed.

At 12:35pm I received ANOTHER phone call from the same company (different person) asking if I could reschedule my interview (AGAIN) to 5pm today because whoever was supposed to interview me, is away from the office (they should have been back by now) and due to an emergency won’t be able to make it back until the end of the day.

While I understand that emergencies happen, and I’m sure they let me know as soon as they found out, I can’t help but still feel irritated by it.  Mostly because it was my plan to not eat lunch until after the interview, and I’m not waiting until after 5pm to eat lunch.

In other employment news, I also heard back from Elections Canada.  I had received a phone call asking if I was interested in working on election day (which I was… otherwise I wouldn’t have signed up) and today I was called to sign up for a training day.  So next Tuesday at 1:30pm I will be getting trained on how to take people’s names and ID’s.  Or something like that.  And on October 14th I hope to see all Canadians out at the polling stations!
