I shouldn't have let them fob me off without a real answer. I'm such a
damned push-over. Trouble is, every time I have to make an actual phone
call, I dissolve into a nervous gibbering wreck. I'm currently sitting
here in one very wet office shirt. (Not that I can do anything about it
now - but seriously, this doesn't look attractive.) Anybody who claims
this stuff gets easier clearly doesn't know what they're talking about.
I'm going to phone them again tomorrow, and hopefully this time I'll
have grown enough of a spine to make them TELL ME what's actually going on.

I've already lowered my standards in the hope of increasing the number
of available jobs. I'm shocked and dissappointed that this has had no
effect at all.

Not everybody you apply to is going to interview you. But I would
imagine the people who eventually hire you will.

At the cost of selling my soul. What a bargin.
Hmm. Spend the rest of my life rotting away in this suck-arse job. Move
to somewhere I hate. Life is so full of choices...
