Business Opportunity...

...that would be totally squashed by a bfp.

I am in negotiations for a really, really great role.

I am due for a potential BFP in another week and a half.

I am so eager for both at this moment but like in Harry Potter, "neither can live while the other survives" (any other HP nerds?) so I know it's one or the other, which sucks, but I feel certain I will flip the eff out if I get neither in the end.

That is all.

It's not that kind of a job. If it were a teaching/choreo gig it would sooo not be an issue.

But it's a performing gig, booked 5 months ahead. So I am sure I'd be visibly pregnant by the time the show went up. Which would not work for this particular role.

[winecheery]

Yes, oh absolutely! The meeting isn't til after the holidays actually, but I had a phone negotiation today which was great. But even so, if I get a bfn this cycle, and I get a bfp in the next one, I would still be showing, no?? I mean, I'd have to drop the role.

Waaaah! I want all the things.

[winecheery]

No yeah, you're totally right. I'm the same way.

I'm just...whining mostly at the thought of not having AT LEAST one or the other. I want a bfp. I want the gig. But if I get neither...I will pout severely!!

And if I get a bfn only to get a bfp soon after, dropping the role would be...really unfortunate. It's a great gig for me, with a company I love. But I wouldn't have a choice, and fortunately it wouldn't burn bridges. I don't think...

But it would still suck! haha

I don't have any advice but being in that situation would be hard! ((Hugs))

[littlemisschatty]

I just hope it works out for you either way! Thats tough

[sunflower22]

GL with both!!!

[bronxgirl]

Are you a dancer? I didn't realize that. That's so awesome.

[winecheery]

Thanks for the warm fuzzies. C'mon 2013...gimme SOME kind of good news to start!

Yeah bronx, I'm actually an actor in professional musical theater, so dancing is a large part of the job

(It looks ridiculous typing that out btw...it feels even sillier saying it...haha)

[pooh8402]

I'd take the role, then if you get BFP this cycle or next, drop the role. I wouldn't wait until you start showing, because that would decrease the amount of time they'd have to find a replacement.

[bonkers412]

Sounds like this could be a win-win
