Entry 100

Wish it were a more upbeat one.

I blew a 3rd interview today. After some 2 hours of talk, the interviewer gently told me I was not the right candidate for the position and was kind enough to tell me why. The fact that I was going up against 2 internal candidates for the job was one factor. The other (and more telling) one was that I was so obviously burned out and unhappy that he couldn't be sure whether I really wanted to work for his company or if I just wanted to get away from where I was now.

And he was right.

Being tired and burned out is one thing. But if it's impacting my ability to not only do my current job, but to get other jobs, I need to get out now.

I'm giving notice tomorrow.

Tonight, I'm going to have a big glass of wine and try to not feel sorry for myself.

((Big hug.)) Stay at it! Don't let the bad guys wear you down. I know you can do what ever task that lies before you. You are a good person with a good heart and you will persevere.
