i got an interview for tuesday at 9:30.
an add was in a paper. really simple add just saying they need part time kennel help. so i called. its there personal kennel. they are collie breeders and have 30 collies. i love collies and am pretty exited about this interview! please everyone wish me luck! i need to be happy and have a fulfilling job atleast once in my life!
these are show collies and from the sounds of it get the best care. i will be there at 6:00 am to feed, water, clean kennels and let them out to play. and at nine i will put them up.
i will come back later that night to feed them again and let them out. so its probably going to be six hours a day give or take an hour, it depends on how fast i get everything done.
its six bucks an hour but its SEVEN days a week!!! but he said if i need a day off they will be glad to work around it.
i am very very happy that he set up an interview to me. i think i will get it because of prior experiance.

well, the interview went very well. he is suppose to call me tomorrow or thursday. so i will be waiting by the phone all the time now. i am pretty sure i got the job. just how he was talking to me, and he gave me sooo many compliments.
his dogs are bueatiful! he has a huge kennel full of champions. most being smooth collies.
the interveiw wasnt what i expected. it wasnt setting down and talking, it was more like a test. we met out in the kennels and he told me what to do, and i did it. i didnt have much trouble moving the dogs out to the exercise area and back to the pens,etc. he was impressed with me and told me that i did an great job. i also liked him and his wife alot. they seemed like great people.
and luckily i miss understood him, its not seven days a week, but it is seven days a week about onced a month while they are out on dog shows. and he told me i can feel free to bring the hubby with me to help on those days.
yup, i bet i got this job
