job snafu

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2005.04.08

Well, I've once again managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. After turning down the job from the fellow that demanded an answer immediately, the second verbal offer was rescinded. So now I'm out two job offers.

Dunno how I managed it, but I guess I might have waited for the signed contract from party #2. At the very least, this saves me a 60-minute commute every morning and every night.

My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people: those who work and those who take the credit. He told me to try to be in the first group; there was less competition there.
