I had such an awesome weekend and then this morning has sucked big time. Finally found out that the one job candidate that I scheduled a whole day of interviews, plane ticket, airport transfer, and hotel for and then stopped replying to my phone messages and emails took another job. Couldn't take two seconds to let me know that until two days before your interview?! Also I scheduled a big meeting in a conference room this morning and all but one of the participants showed up at my boss's office instead. So I had to go retrieve the one person who actually went to the right place because everyone else didn't want to walk back across campus. Jerks.
glw That is so annoying! Even though that candidate didn't take a job by your company, whose to say that you won't cross paths in your future? I think it's incredibly irresponsible when someone can't take the time to let you know they took a position elsewhere.
I know right? Congratulations, now at least 3 people in your rather small industry think you're a douche!
My Saturday was so good! Went for breakfast, went to my parents and found out my aunt left my brother and I am small inheritance, which was so unexpected. Then Sunday morning we found out my husband's cousin's 6 year old drowned out by Vancouver and her dad is still missing. They just found their boat. H's parents and sister went to Van yesterday and we are supposed to go sometime this week, but I don't want to. I have only met the cousin a couple times and feel like I don't really belong in this scenario and I really have no right to be there in this moment, if that makes sense.

I worked for 2 hours this morning trying to get the database to work on a coworker's computer and no luck at all. So frustrating. I'm beat.
H's and my vacation might turn out to be a total impromptu road trip. I've got so much going on at work in the next few months, I think the next two weeks are going to be the least busy of all.
