Robin, I can relate to your description of your father.  Mine wasn't all over my ass, he just ignored me and had a negative comment for everything that I ever attempted.  I just wanted his approval and wanted to know that he was proud of me.  I have carried that "less than" feeling with me for most of my adult life.  I keep telling myself that " a job is just that; a job," nothing more, nothing less.  It doesn't define me and it doesn't make me who I am as a person.  What I can give back is what defines me; and I do that everyday when working with clients.  "IF" I get offered the job, I will stiffen my backbone and continue to tell myself that I "won't surely die if I am anxious and nervous."  LOL I feel terrified every time I have to deal with change and it hasn't killed me yet. Thanks for the kind words......
