I'm still waiting to get

Posted February 9, 2002 11:40 AM.

I'm still waiting to get my rejection letter from the BBC for a position as 'Community Producer' that I applied for a couple of weeks ago. The BBC is clearly an organisation that is designed purely to attempt to break my spirit. Over the last year they've advertised quite a few jobs that have really excited me and I've had more than one interview. But I never get the jobs. I got down to the last two for one of them. But I still didn't get it. Occasionally I wonder if someone I crossed as a teenager has risen to the top of the recruitment department and strokes a large white cat and howls maniacally each time I apply. In the meantime I can only link to amusing mock-ups of rejection letters [mentski.co.uk] in an attempt to keep my spirits up.
