[Rhodes22-list] I Didn't Get Voted Off The Island

[Roger Pihlaja]

Hi Everybody,

I got some good news today.  I have an interview with the plant manager of Michigan Ethanol, LLC. in Caro, MI this Thursday at 10:00 AM!  He would be my direct supervisor.  As Technical Manager, I would be the #2 person at the Caro plant.  I will also be meeting with a couple of the people who would on my staff.

I guess I read the tea leaves wrong last week.  I didn't think it went all that well; but, I didn't get voted off the island and instead survived to go thru to the 2nd round of interviews.  The headhunters teach that your only goal in the 1st interview is to get a 2nd interview.  By that standard of performance, I guess I'm doing OK.

It's my understanding that, although I would be based at the Caro plant, I would actually be an employee of Broin & Associates, Inc. in Sioux Falls, SD.  There will probably be a final round of interviews at the corporate headquarters in Sioux Falls, SD.

I haven't heard anything from MRI in Kansas City, MO.  Actually, I didn't really expect to hear anything before the middle of January.

So the game continues.  Wish me luck on Thursday!

Needless to say, Deb is pretty happy with this development!
