How to Get a Job Offer!

Yes, I found a piece of advice worth taking, I took it, and it worked.

• Make conversation, make a joke, lighten up.

The day before a phone interview, my wife said that I take myself too seriously on phone interviews.  And, after resolving myself to a bit of defeat, relaxing about this not-having-a-job thing called graduating-from-college-so-deal-with-it, I relaxed while talking on the phone, related to my interviewer, and now, this week, I have a job offer for part-time work, and a second interview for a second part-time job.  

Thankfully, both places involve some of my favorite things--learning/computers and drinking/coffee.
