i hate waiting.

yesterday i got an email from a company that i had sent my resume to roughly a week ago.

i cannot express how ecstatic i was just getting a callback after the last year. there has been so little interest in hiring people across the industry. it doesn't seem to matter where i was looking for work. everything and everyone was waiting and holding their breath.

the couple jobs i have been able to pick up over the last 14-months have been due to having a friend championing me. i have been both believing in and counting on my network of professional associates and friends to help me through.

when i got the email yesterday, it was a lift i hadn't expected. someone was actually looking at my resume and interested in what they saw, rather than my network putting me in their sights. considering i hadn't really had any interest in the last four or five months i'm surprised i didn't start turning cartwheels.

i responded to the email and now we wait. and wait. and wait.
