Yeah, and remember this was for the role of IT Manager, they said I was 'too technical" and "too strategic". I've never been accused of those things before. Oh well. I have another interview for a 3 month contract on Friday.

Sounds like a modern way of saying "too competant", or "too able". Which is another way of saying we can't afford someone who knows what they are doing.

The right job with the right company is still out there. You'll be glad that you didn't wind up working for some of the ones you've interviewed with.

Good luck , and keep the faith!

Thanks Steve. Some of them have indeed been close calls, seeing how they treat people who are jub hunting defintely opens a window on to the way they must treat their staff.

That is a great insight, Simon, and a great mind set. Keep up that attitude and soon you and the right job for you will be attracted to each other.

We finally finished moving all our furniture back into the family room with the new floor and freshly painted baseboards.  My wife and I were exhausted, but at 10:30, we insisted on sitting down there for a few minutes and watching some TV.

It was more like our family "taking back" the family room from the pets. 

(We made it about 15 minutes, then went to bed )

Our workouts will now move down there from our bedroom.  The bowflex is down there, and there's way more room to spread out.  I don't recommend kickboxing workouts for two in tight quarters.

They won't give up so easily now that you lost the initiative and surprise.
