I just recommended my boyfriend for a job at a business located in the same building as where I work.
But the more I think I about it the more I think it might suck for us to be working in the same building.:( Sure we can carpool and have lunches together,but honestly that might be too much time together. I know husbands and wives that work together in the same office and I don't know how they do it or why they don't get sick of eachother. Just the though of working in the same building seems like it might be too close...I like to be able to come home and say "honey, how was your day?" and not already know because we discussed it over lunch or that I saw him smoking a cig in the parking lot.:(
I was just trying to help, I mean he really needs a job. We live together so every day that he's jobless is another day that I have to figure out how to pay for everything. as desperate as I am for him to find something, I just don't know if what I did was a good thing.
oh well just cause i made a recommendation doesn't mean they'll hire him; I'm not sure he's the perfect fit for what they are looking for, though I know he has the skills & it's something he could do with a little bit of training. perhaps they'll grant him an interview at least but the rest will be about how well he gets along with the owner. (except the owner is really nice. seems like he'd be cool to work for.)
ugh.
