I think I slept too hard

Apps should apparently be processed soon. Yay! One of the mods is getting a PhD or something, and has been MIA for about two months because of it. The others just aren't present anymore. So I guess that's what's going on there.
I haven't been sleeping fricking all month, because my husband has been looking for a new job after quitting his current one. I haven't been sleeping because I use CBD to put my ass out every night, and even though we're in a legal state, he's in an industry with federal oversight, so he needs to be clean. More and more places even in that position have quit testing anyway, but we didn't want to risk him applying at the one place in town that still did.
There's a place right across the street from our apartment where he applied. He walked in to talk to someone a few weeks ago, they chatted for about ten minutes, and then told him he'd hear back once his background check came through. So, we gave it about a week and they still hadn't called. He'd call every day, and was told the relevant person would call him back. He went in a few times, but she was never there. I'm thinking, great, he's being ghosted. Please put in applications at other buildings.
Yesterday, he walked over there earlier in the morning, rather than waiting until after lunch. He was gone about 10 minutes before he came back. Apparently he's had the job since the first time he went in, but the person in charge has just been in a position where the building is so understaffed, she's been too busy helping doing what needs to be done to be able to deal with the understaffing problem. No interview, no application. Background check as a formality.
And the place doesn't test. So yay! I slept last night! Now I'm just looking at my email and waiting for 1pm to roll around, because we're going out for lunch with somebody.
