[QUOTE="klmno, post: 331576, member: 3699"] Yeah, Heather- that's the sort of stuff that went thru my mind after we got off the phone. I had prepared myself for just trying to get the job no matter what the pay and so forth but for somoe reason had forgotten all about planning a way to avoid difficult child issues. I'm kicking myself in the rear for it. It probably will boil down to how many resumes he got from people qualified to do what he's looking for. He knows I'm qualified and that I "get" what his needs for the office are. Maybe I'll get lucky and he really will get back with me next week to schedule a face-to-face interview. If he does, I'll sure plan better for that. But then as an after thought- on my cover letter that is sent with my resume, I explain that I took a leave of absence to deal with personal family matters. (That explains how I ended up unemployed because they ALL know this profession bottomed out by last spring.) And then all I said to him in that regard today was that my son had gotten into trouble and I had to take time to deal with it but it was all resolved now. I'm not so sure it would have mattered now that I think about it. Maybe they look at it like if it was a divorce, there wouldn't be a chance for a reoccurance. [/QUOTE]
