I’m in an odd state, in that I have been invited for an on-campus interview for an administrative position at another university (“48”) but haven’t heard a word back since that invitation. Thanksgiving is next week, which means that things are going to get very busy very quickly, and the date of the interview – December 9 – will be here before anyone knows it.
Logistical challenges aside, I’m also left with an unpleasant mix of excitement/ennui/dread as I slog through the days at work at my current university (“38”). It’s weird doing the work that I do, work that involves a great deal of planning, some of it very long-term, knowing that I might be giving my notice in as little as three weeks, a date just shy of four months’ of service in my current job.
An odd state indeed. It would be nice to be able to make a hotel reservation, or something.
