I have a job interview in Washington, DC, on Friday so I made my hotel reservation just a little bit ago. I'm very happy to be paying $75/night for the hotel, which looks to be pretty nice. I was expecting the cheapest hotel in DC to be at least $100/night. There were some that were a tad cheaper (like in the $60s) but they looked a little sketchy to me so I think the small bit more to pay will be well worth it. At the last minute I decided to stay for two nights. It's going to basically be an all-day thing on Friday, with me meeting someone at 12:30pm and then someone else at 2pm, so I worried about running into a lot of Friday night traffic if I left after the interview. This way I won't have to worry and can have a relaxing and enjoyable night in the hotel on Friday night with maybe a nice swim in the indoor pool or some room service. Okay, the pool part could happen but the room service thing is probably out of my budget. It will be more like stopping at the grocery store and heating up a frozen entree in the room's microwave!
This interview seems promising but I'm so doubtful about the whole job-finding thing now. This job is as a reference librarian at the National Library of Medicine - which sounds pretty cool, right? Right. But I wouldn't be a National Library of Medicine employee because the government contracts out those positions. I would technically be an employee of this other company then. So that could be a good thing - or a bad thing. I'm not sure. I guess I will see on Friday.
