Just so...so...UNPROFESSIONAL!!!

I will begin work in a few months. I have already received and accepted the offer. This position requires a Clearance. Well, yesterday I had an 11:30 a.m. conference call with the Security Coordinator of my future employer. I arranged for my daughter to be well outta earshot since this was a scheduled 30 minute call. I waited. I waited more. And yet again, I waited. He never called. The HR rep who scheduled the call never called to tell me the call would be rescheduled. I wasted more than an hour of my time waiting around before I decided to call them (no answer, had to leave a message). I sent an email. I received a response(couple hours later) with a lackluster excuse.

Fast-forward to today. Call we rescheduled for 12:30 p.m. I was told if Security Coordinator didnt call by 12:40 to call HR and to send an email. Well, 12:41 comes around and there is no call. I call the HR rep, leave a message. I shoot out an email. At 12:51 he finally calls!!! Only to tell me we will have to reschedule because having held a clearance in the past, their procedure is a bit different. WTH??!! Didn't you know this before you called? Are you just looking at my papers while dialing my number? Is this an indication of what to expect with this company? I sure as heck hope not!! I think Im kinda upset about this because I could have gone to the thrift store. Instead I will be in the house because the sun has gone down and it is now raining outside. **sigh**
