I would like to be trained in the ways of the Job Force
Unidentified Ohio University got back to me yesterday, with a 'no.' Somehow going from two potential hires to one was much more upsetting than I expected. Rather than going from "I have two options" to "I have one option" I have gone to "Help me, Unidentified Pennsylvania University... you're my only hope."
They aren't, of course, my only hope. I'm still waiting to hear back from many places I've applied to and I'm continuing to send out applications. I'm just really tired and would like it all to be over. UPU is the job I preferred anyway, so if I get it I'll be really happy. It's just that until I hear from them, I will probably be a bit mopey. And afterwards, I may be depressed.

You could always try to get a job in what you actually were trained for :-p. Instead of what you want to do... No that's a bad idea...I'm hoping unidentifyed Pennsylvania University hires you. And then you'd be forced to live in Pennsylvania and you'd start defending it instead of making fun of it.
In the words of Tom Petty, the waiting is the hardest part. I would like to add that there are other things, along with the waiting, that are equally hard, like, oh, most things about the whole job searching process. I'm going to stop with this whole Tom Petty paragraph now.
Anyway, I've been there. More than I would've ever liked to have been there. Chin up. People who don't hire you are eedjits. Good luck. And all of that stuff.
