Wonder Woman and Adventures in Interviewing (Part V)

A phone call yesterday led to a second interview today. 1:00pm with the booksellers. I try on a few outfits, trying to figure out what exactly business casual MEANS. After several failed attempts to capture the essence of bohemian professional I give up with a red cardigan and Mexican peasant top. After a quick lunch I drive over.

I'm not so nervous this time around. It may be my wonder woman powers were finally maturing or I'm just used it by now. I'm taken into the back of Bookseller Land, where the walls are not so flashy and the books are no where to be found. Have I fallen down the rabbit hole? The manager, the Queen of Bookseller Land, interviews me this time round. She wants to know about me and my adventures as a wonder woman. I tell. I'm hoping she's the Duchess, and not the Queen of Hearts. It's a nice little chat. Much more relaxed than previous interviews. Much more flowing instead of GO GO GO!

She asks if I have any questions. I only want to know when I can hear from them.
"Oh don't worry about that, I'm offering you the job," she replies. Well, it seems the adventures of a wonder woman CAN impress.

Employed, WW
