I revert to my previous hypothesis.

The gods must have something very special in mind for me. This is not my chaos zone. It's far too well-planned.

I got edged out of the job by somebody who had three years' experience working in a similar environment.

And they wonder why Americans feel like a recession is around the corner.

On the plus side, I have another interview scheduled for Monday morning. Good stability and benefits, and I think it's still the ASRS. And potentially pays better than the one I just got edged out of.

I'm just feeling very, very tired.
