3.6.11

Tiny consolation

Today, I got my very first rejection email. One of the jobs I applied for have decided to “go in a different directions” and will “no longer be considering my application at this time”. It might sound like I’m extravagating when I say I’ve applied for a lot of jobs. But I have. I’m averaging about three a day, and I started May 23. And today I got my very first rejection. Its actually very validating. For the first time in this job search I know that someone read my resume... or at least read enough of it to find my email address. And they took the time to send me an email letting me know to forget it. Because of that email my hopes are right where they belong, low. But that’s okay. I’m okay with it because I know something. Let’s hope this is the first in a long line of rejects. And one perfect “please be the next young billionaire and here’s the keys to the company... I mean your jet.” Thank you one brave rejection sender I now have realistic hopes.
