I worked from home today. Later in the week I’m headed to Providence, RI.
Today I did a little job searching. I guess I’m not able to just stop like I thought I was. I saw two positions this morning that seem to have been posted forever, plus they are both positions that I have applied for in the past that have been unposted then posted again a few months later.
This is terrible but I’m going to be honest with you. I felt a sense of “HA HA!” when I saw them. I should be ashamed but I’m not. I feel superior. I feel like “If you hired me you’d not have been sorry”. Who am I kidding? Hired? “If you would have GIVEN ME A CHANCE you’d not have been sorry.”
I should be more gracious, more grateful and more unconcerned with these jobs. And I was . . . until I saw them.
My new job should have washed the bitter taste out of my mouth but it hasn’t. There’s definitely an aftertaste that’s not going away anytime soon.
