I'm not handling with this well.

After once place rejects you and the other apparently isn't interested, I really had come round to the view that "it wasn't meant to be". Press on with what I'm doing and enjoy the upsides of it - plus the advantage of not having to face the change.

Now of course, that's all up in the air once more. Not surprising I'm developing a nice line in headaches.

Meanwhile, I've asked for the paperwork for the 2nd job but really need to be getting something in the mail today and haven't yet had it. Presumably it will be an identical form to the one I've already filled in and will only require an adjustment of subject emphasis. But it would be good to see the actual job/person spec rather than just taking a best guess.

'course there's always the possibility I suppose of driving down to deliver it by hand once again. Or prevailing upon sibling to deliver it if she's up for that. Or even try submitting the things electronically: not that they were inviting me to do that.
