So, My Company Is Closing And Another Company Is Buying It. The New Company Is Interviewing Us All On Tuesday And Will Hire Some Of Us But Not All Of Us. I Am Very Nervous About Possibly Not Getting Hired And Then Having No Job. Hubby And I Wanted To Try To Get Pregnant And Now Everythign Is On Hold.. Any Advice?

Hello, purplegirl1,

Yes, let us know. I am rooting for you! I'll look for your post tomorrow.

How are you doing otherwise? Been thinking of you,

Thank you both so much. We have a 15 minute interview...which is crazy b/c what can you possibly know about us in 15 minutes other than our name and hi, lol. But, many of us think things are already fixed. The company does have offices in New York City and Brooklyn but I live out East on Long Island which would be a huge travel for me if even offerred a position there. (Christine I am sure you know how far that is since you are there). Anyway, we don't find out if we get the position for another 2 weeks!!!!! Talk about Anxiety and OCD, LOL.... but it is funny b/c I am probably freaking just as much as everyone else, or less....so maybe having OCD does come in handy b/c it enables you to learn how to deal with life's real issues, ya know.....Thank you both so much for your support and I will def. post tom. to let you all know how the interview process went!!!
Thanks again!

This reminds me of the saying, "Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you."
