Position Filled

And not by me.

I'm guessing some form of nepotism was at work here. The job didn't even get posted; maybe someone moved up internally. But I digress. They ask me to interview immediately, then backtrack an hour later saying the position's filled.

It makes me a little sad, I guess. I didn't even get to go in there and show off my awesome self.

I'll send him a copy of my resume anyway, and...I guess it's for the best. I was out for my afternoon walk thinking it would suck to give up this newfound freedom. Even for a steady paycheck.

With that said, it still sucks I didn't even get a shot at it. But this is why I try not to let myself get too excited over things. You get your hopes up, and then it doesn't end well.
