When Will It End?

Welp, on my way to ANOTHER job interview. These are gettin real old real fast. Hope I get it, the job is with the world's largest printing company. If you're not familiar with the printing industry, it's the 3rd largest industry, so the world's largest printing company means it's fucking huge! Time to go shmooze the suits and ties

Luckily for me my old boss hired me back, because I was going to all these interviews and being rejected.

I've been getting rejects too, for a really fucked up reason.
"Gee, Mr. Stephens after reading your credentials I have one question, why haven't you gotten a job yet? You've been on interviews and no one has hired you? I can't find anything amiss, so there has to be something you're hiding. No employee can be this perfect. There has to be something wrong with you."
Yeah, Mr. Hiring Guy there is something a miss. No one's hiring me cause they're all thinking what you think, which is absurd! I've been in this field for 15 years, so apparently I'm doing something right.
HR managers think way too much. Actually, let me correct that. HR managers think way too much about shit that doesn't have anything to do with the situation.

I was having problems in that I had a life outside of work--I am the mother of a young child--so I couldn't work the slave hours they wanted. Or maybe I just had a bad book--I hadn't been doing any print design in a long time so my book was a bit skimpy. Or maybe because I have been in the business too long so they thought I would want too much money. Who knows?

Probably you intimidate them.
