Damn it!
The head of the summer ESL program at Roger Williams U. was supposed to call me either yesterday or today for an interview at 10:00 a.m. his time. I calculated that would be either 10:00 or 11:00 p.m. my time, depending on daylight savings. I’m afraid I was wrong, and it was actually 9:00, and I missed the call.
DAMN IT! Now I feel like an asshole! If I did that I’ve missed out on the job for sure!

Bristol, RI, is in the Eastern time zone and observes daylight saving time. I believe 10:00 AM EDT should be 10:00 PM in Shanghai.

Did you ever connect with the school later?

Yes, the man called me the next day. It turns out that in my resume I had transposed two digits of my phone number, so after resending it to him I was okay. I THINK I may well get the job! The pay isn’t so high, though. I’ll say more about this later.
