You've Got To Be Joking!

I should have posted this morning when I was feeling great, having just reconnected with two positive recruiters. But no. I had to wait until now. I just received a rejection notice for an interview I had almost two months ago. Not by phone. Not by voicemail or email. By POSTCARD!!! For all the world to see! WTF!!! Is that what you get these days for killing yourself and trying your very best?? I have never been more insulted. Thanks a lot "TROLL."

Recruiters

Just now, my answer to a recruiter's question on what salary I'm looking for "Well, we are not seeing that salary anymore for the position of X."  So for a salary that is already pennies for surviving in a major city, they are suggesting a 7 digit price drop? No. Maybe they aren't seeing that salary because they have crappy clients. Sorry sister. You don't crap on Miss Unemployed and expect your next commission.

Anxiety

My anxiety level today is almost unbearable. I can't pay my rent for June and on top of that, somehow my account was inadvertently debited of over $600 so I owe that much more! "...call us if you have any questions." That's what the letter said... yes I have a question for you... "Will you give me a job?" All I need is a job. Just one job and I can get back on my feet.

Haunted by Last Job

I am being haunted by my last job. I hated everything about it: my boss, the industry, everything! But why, why, am I only being contacted for jobs in that particular industry? Is it some kind of cruel joke? Am I destined to work for another "vienna sausage fingers?"
