How are you doing today?

I made a terrible, terrible mistake this morning that confirms that something is seriously wrong with me. Yesterday, I was half-asleep -- in a sort of stupor, if you will. I was not in a good mood, having been in an internal struggle with myself for the past couple of weeks. I resented myself more than usual that day.

Anyway, in order to assuage my feelings of worthlessness, inferiority, and lack of productivity, I applied to a bunch of jobs without having read through the descriptions and what-not. I did not expect to get hired for any of them. Therefore, it was to my surprise that one of the hiring agencies called me back minutes after I had applied and sent them my resume, which in my mind, was little more than fifty or so kilobytes of useless data. I told them I was okay with all the duties and working conditions and what-not.

Then this morning, I told the hiring manager I had changed my mind once she had told me that I was up for consideration. I genuinely had not expected to get hired for the role. I was not even sure I could do it, which was why I had told the woman this morning that I could not accept the job offer. Now I just feel bad for her because she told me that the blame for the "misunderstanding", to use a very kind description for this mishap of mine, was for the most part on her. Now, I'm wondering what's wrong with me.

What kind of job is it where you just get hired over the course of 12 hours with no interview?

Anyway fuck HR, they're a bunch of rude parasites.

Oh @EclairReturns what was the role about how much was the compensation? We have similar backgrounds and Im still hoping to move to around Hawaii in 5-7 years. Obviously dont have to be specific. Theres likely < 10 jobs I can get in Hawaii staying in my current field. So gotta wait for someone to leave and hope they take me but I imagine completion for Hawaii maybe worldwide or heavily favored Hawaiians.

Woke up at 7a. Laid in bed with my wife until 9a. Made breakfast then shoveled snow from 10a-11a. Went to the restaurant store until 12p. Ate lunch, took a nap then walked to work at 3p.

the role

It was a job completely unrelated in my field and the compensation was meager. I assure you that no one with a college degree would exactly beg for it.
