Thanks for all the good thoughts, everyone. I got word back from the recruiter about the one position I was very hopeful about, and unfortunately the company has decided to re-org the group, and that position is gone. I also got email back from a second recruiter about a different spot at a completely different company--and that one's been put on hold too. So I'm back to betwixt and between, and I'll need to regroup, but it is what it is at the moment. I can salve my ego with the thought that if there was a position, they would hire me, but I'm still rather annoyed.

Bummer. It IS a nice thought that they would hire you if they could, but it's cold comfort.

The right position is out there for you; I feel it.

Got a call from another recruiter today about a possible. We'll see how that goes next week.

Oh, man. I'm sorry :( I wish I could throw a lead your way, but we just reorg-ed and lost people and you know the drill...*sigh*

we're still on for tomorrow, right? should i plan a pick-me-up session of fun tv?

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

Yes, we are on for tomorrow and that does sounds like a plan. Dinner and TV for the win!

I'm sorry they changed their plans like that. :(

Yeah, it sucks, but it's pretty much par for the course right now. Everyone is cutting back.

[ainsley.livejournal.com]

Bah. It is what it is, but what it is sucks.

I'm going to keep on sending good thoughts, if that's okay.

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

I really appreciate it. Thanks.

Hugs and sorry the two positions fell through. I'm currently also looking for a job and it's slow going.

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

Very slow going, yeah. I hope things go well for you, too!

I was jobhunting over the summer (before I got laid off) and the same thing happened to me with three sep. jobs! So I hear you: it's terribly disappointing, and there's no comfort at all in thinking about what might've been. :(

[wickedwords.livejournal.com]

Exactly. Cold comfort that it's happening all over, but still, it's better than it being personal.
