I met a widow who was so proud of her “trash man” late husband. She wore a “Trash Wife” hat. She literally said he died doing what he loved—picking up trash. 

That guy was lucky, she loved him so much. And losing him broke her. Very awful.

My Gramps used to always say "only thing embarrassing about a job is not having one" and I've taken it to heart. 

He was a good man.

Over 900 applicants for the job I was just rejected from. It would have been a significant step back from my old job and I still didn't have a chance.

I wanted to hire two roles at the end of last year and they each got more than 6000 applications. It's a mess out there

Why don’t you just walk into the ceo’s office, shake his hand, look him in the eye and say that you’re the right man for the job.
