Because I like to be dramatic, heres my analogy between choosing an intern position and marriage
I was in contact with the district manager of Walgreens last week, and he told me he was going to ask around and see which store needed me, and hed get back to me. That was last Wednesday. I decided to walk into Target on Friday and talk to the pharmacist there to ask with whom I would need to get in contact to obtain an intern position. We ended up talking for quite a while, and she said she did need somebody for every-other-weekend the bad thing, she said was that it might take a while for me to get hired because Id have to jump through a bunch of corporate hoops in the main office even though she needs me right away. She said shed pass along my info to the pharmacy manager, and told me to call him on Monday to remind him that I was interested.
Fast forward to today. I called Target, and he told me he was really busy at the moment, but the pharmacist had told him about me, and hed surely get back to me later today or tomorrow. Then Walgreens called me and I didnt answer the phone because I knew he wanted commitment, and so I let him leave a message. The message said he found a store for me, and he needed me to go in and fill out the paperwork and consent for the drug test, etc. I guess we skipped the interview?!?!? I didnt expect things to move so fast, and Im still waiting on Target.
So heres my drama .I feel like a two-timing pharmacy *****! Its like Walgreens has asked me to marry him, but I have Target over here on the side, and I dont want to let him go. Targets far more attractive, but hes unsure of what the future holds. He likes me, but cant promise anything. Walgreens isnt perfect, and Im not sure if I can see myself with him forever, but he wants me now. Whats a girl to do? Im afraid of commitment! I dont want to let Walgreens offer slip through the cracks, just in case things dont work out with Target. But how can I say yes when I know my heart belongs to someone else?
The Walgreens store is very near to where I live, but its a 24-hour store and its very busy. Im unsure of what my hours would be at this point. At Target, they would want me to work from 3-7 on Friday, 9-6 on Sat, and 11-3 on Sun, of every other weekend, and the pharmacy closes for lunch from 1:30 to 2 everyday, and theres no drive-thru.
Any advice?
