Day 329 of 365 days.

Easy come, easy go.

So the job that I was going to have to travel to Boston for went away about 2 hours after I signed the contract. They asked me if I wanted a different local job and I took an hour to think about it, then called them back and left a message asking for more information and they never called back.

And people wonder why I hate this industry.

(Yeah, there’s a little more to it than that, but I don’t feel like getting into it).

I should have ran away on that train when I had the chance

    That sucks. It’s how I felt a few months back when nobody would hire me. But, it finally happened for me and it’ll happen for you too. Good luck man.


    Seen on your photo stream. (?)

    *hug* on the upside your soul will not get sucked away by that particular job. I hope something better comes along and really damn soon too.

    ooooo angry eyes and furrowed brow… I’m staying out of your way.

    I’m pulling for you… but then, you already know that. ((hugs))

    Aw…..well is it for sure over??? If so then I’m sorry. If you don’t know, then there still maybe a chance yes???

    @Travelinjim: yeah, hopefully. Thanks, Jim.

    @mickeysacks: I guess not. But as much as I wasn’t looking forward to being trapped in Boston for 3 weeks, I do need the money.

    @lrayholly: Actually, my eyes always look like that. But thanks.

    @PhotoKat: I dunno. The job in Pittsburgh is probably more likely. I really didn’t particularly want to be trapped out in Boston anyway. We’ll see how it goes.

    those bastards! But you have a signed contract, that should mean something.


    Seen in my contacts’ photos. (?)

    Argh! How frustrating. I’m still hopeful the Pittsburgh job will come through. If you move to Oregon I can get you a job in the insurance racket. Your own gray cubicle! Casual Fridays! Cookies and coffee at meetings!

    @lalalaa Dolce Vita: Not really. Well, ok… yeah, it means they’ll pay me by the hour for hours that I’ll never work.

    @Kungfukitten: Yeah… umm… I think I get enough of cubicle hating life here. Thanks, though.
