Highs and Lows

On Friday I responded to an online job posting for a job that seemed PERFECT for me. I found the posting by doing some basic "Parachute" fact finding. A recruiter emailed me Friday night and told me to call him on Monday (yesterday) morning. I have to tell you, I was absolutely excited. It seem like destiny. I just happened to find the perfect job opening and BAM the recruiter wanted me to call him ASAP. So I cleared my desk and mentally prepared and called him at the appointed time and....I reached his fucking voice mail. If it's one thing I hate, it is lack of promptness. OK, I figured maybe he was just away from his desk so I waited by my phone. By 9:30, I realized that this clown was not calling me back. I left him an email at 10:30 just stating that we must have missed each other some how. After not hearing from him at all, I was fairly disappointed.

I struck me as odd at how I reacted to this. I was so disappointed I think I reached the part of anger. I am nervous that I will not be able to find a job to match this one in pay. My self-doubt doesn't show itself much, but it is there and showing itself in my search for a new job. I really have to get a grip on it.

Hopefully he will call me back today
