Had a screening call with a recruiter at 1pm today, nothing final, just the usual ‘tell me about yourself’ stuff, and by the time it ended my shoulders were up around my ears from leaning into the laptop the whole time.
Instead of going straight back to my desk I took the long way through the park, past the stretch where everyone’s out on the grass now that it’s actually warm. Felt almost strange seeing people just sitting around with nothing urgent going on, dogs, strollers, somebody’s bike leaning against a tree.
Didn’t think about the call once the whole 20 minutes it took to loop back around. Got home and my neck still feels tight but it’s a different kind of tight, I’ll take it.
