Last week was a good week for hits on my resume and close fits in terms of my job experience. This week is slow. I doubt any of the companies to which I have applied lately, or even any of the companies that have contacted me in the past fortnight will ever hire me. That's just the way it is. I am awful at marketing myself.

I also don't do well in situations where (potential) coworkers prefer to avoid all forms of contact or communication.
