Take the weekend...

Post #119,741 by jb4 10/1/03 5:35:45 PM Reply	Take the weekend... .. go to a Borders or Barnes and Noble in your area, sped a couple of hours (and a cuppa Latte or whatever) and peruse the Access books in the shelves. Find one that seems to speak to you, what your self-percieved weaknesses are, buy it, then go home and study those parts. When the employer calls and offers you the job, when you go in, you'll be prepared. When you're prepared, you're confident, and that shows. Even if you go in, and they throw something a tyou that you're not prepared for, you'll still know that you have a source (actually two, for you know how to get onto IWETHEY!) of reference, that that is still more confidence. jb4 Boy I'd like to see those words on a PR banner behind [Treasury Secretary John] Snow at the podium: Jobs and Growth: Just Wait.

Hehe, Owls don't drink coffee, but they love Barnes & Noble. I was already planning that idea, or ordering the book I know I'll like off the internet. Because even if I don't get this job, there will be another one sometime down the road, and I'll still need to know this... She still hasn't called, and the place is only open M-Th, (meant to say Th the first time), so I don't know what will happen... Could have gotten myself in a panic over nothing, she might not even hire me. But at least I learned something that I can fix, and that is that I don't know enough to feel confident about Access. ;) Nightowl >8# "I learned to be the door, instead of the mat!"

It should be here soon. :) I'm still determined to learn Access better, no matter what else happens. Nightowl >8# "I learned to be the door, instead of the mat!"
