Mindless Juices

I didn't get the job. It's OK. The first time I applied for a supervisor position, I didn't get it either. I think maybe I need one interview to figure out what I need to do. So, maybe the next time a position opens, I'll be more ready. Meanwhile, I am now going to try to be a contractor for a local company in town. It has nothing to do with cable and I already verified that it is not a conflict of interest. I'll just help them out when they need it in my time off. So, if you want, please pray that I get a meeting with the company next week and it works out. They do a lot of work with both secular and Christian organizations. Hopefully, God's plan for this is to help out a company who glorifies Him rather than move my career forward. Meanwhile, I haven't had a chance to play video games or wash the car. I've been staying up until midnight for TWC and I am tired. I could really use a day off, but it doesn't really look like there's one coming up... not even my birthday. Unfortunately, the WAM Tech Training day fell on my birthday. Moreover, we weren't able to get anyone smarter than me to teach the tech team something. So, we have to utilize my limited knowledge to try to teach the rest of the tech team. Unfortunately, they think I know a thing or two. I used to think I did, but I was humbled when we met professional A/V people a couple of years ago when we moved newhope Church into it's current Gimghoul residence. Relatively speaking, I know nothing. The rest of the tech team might say, relatively speaking, I know a lot. They simply underestimate themselves. I think every sound tech has surpassed me in knowledge. I pretend like I know something, but they are all better than I am. The only thing I might be good at (and this is why they THINK I'm better than I am) is figuring out what the problem is. But, that's because that's what I do everyday. I troubleshoot... I am a troubleshooter. That's my natural skill. It's a good one to have. It's applicable to just about every job, but, again, after seeing some professional troubleshooters, I am nothing. FYI, the professionals are very good about saying, "oooooh, you're smart" and making me feel like I figured something out when they probably knew what the problem was 10 minutes earlier.
