Gessika, you totally did the right thing! As hard as the decision was, it was the right one, IMO; don't second-guess yourself! The red flags were indeed huge, you weren't just seeing things. It seemed like the right hand didn't know what the left hand was doing (or maybe it did, but didn't want to admit it!) If that's how they conduct the INTERVIEW process, for pete's sake, which is normally the phase during which they're trying to ENTICE you to work for them, imagine what they'd be like and how you'd be treated once you're in! Really, jobs like that are a dime a dozen. Your skill is valuable; don't sell yourself short! You'll only get as much or as little as you're willing to settle for.
Just out of school, I started my own practice. After getting hit with some unexpected financial expenses, I decided to supplement that income with work at the school I'd graduated from. I never abandoned my private practice, though; it's slow going sometimes, but it's alive and well. An veteran MT friend once said to me that you only fail if you stop trying.
I'd say either keep looking, or consider opening your own practice (or perhaps share space with some trusted MT friends with whom you have good energy between you) or maybe a combo of the above, and tell anybody that treats you like that office did to take a hike Trust me, you'll probably see his ad over and over, and meanwhile, when you put out there your good energy and your value and worth, your business will grow and grow while he scratches his head wondering why he "just can't get good help these days!"
lol
Hang in there!
