Turns out I didn't get the job at BIG company. Not that I was really surprised after all this time. In fact I was more surprised by the fact that they even contacted me at all to let me know that I didn't get it. I thought the rule of thumb was when you haven't heard anything from the company in over a month it was pretty much a given that you weren't exactly their top choice for the position.
And I'm feeling...just fine. Really. I was running a bunch of errands this morning - things like picking up my brand new professional photos (so pretty - so very very pretty!) and getting some office supplies and I was thinking about how hard it would be to do all of that and run the business if I was actually also working fulltime. So I'm pretty happy with the end result.
I did end up purchasing a pretty big ticket item for the business shortly after I got the news though so I'm joking that it was my 'feel better spending spree.' What is said item? Photoshop CS3. Yep, close to $700 later I am now the proud owner of the latest in Adobe technology.
I had actually already made up my mind to purchase the software before the BIG company news came in since I use the software to create all my print ads, direct mail, etc. I had been thinking that I could just use the version available at FedEx Kinkos but then realized that the amount of print pieces I need to pull together between now and the end of the year would cost me more to do piece-meal at FedEx then to simply buy the software outright.
Best of all, as I mentioned before, my new professional photos are here so I'm going to go play graphic artist.
