I applied for...97 positions (oh yeah, I was shotgunning at ANYTHING I looked remotely qualified for!) before I landed this one. The runaround and string along is awful. Especially the jobs where they already know who they're going to hire (this is probably what the real sitch about the VA job is) but because of Equal Opportunity laws, they have to interview X number of others. It's completely lousy for those X number of people!!

Last December my laptop DIED. So I totally empathize with that agony, too. :C

I have definitely not applied for that many yet, hah. In all honesty, I know it's only been six months or so since I graduated and that there are people who don't have jobs for years and I'm lucky my parents are letting me live at home, etc., but I got my hopes up for this job (which I try not to do) and I was so excited to, maybe, finally be working, and maybe even get my foot in the door in a government agency. And then it all went away. :( I should just quit applying to government jobs, really. I'm not qualified for shit.

Thanks for the kind words, though. *hugs*
