AUTHOR: J DATE: 2:30:00 PM ----- BODY: Today marks a milestone in my, seemingly, neverending search for employment in the design field... not a very good milestone, but it has to mean something somewhere. At 1:45pm today, I sent out an email to a small ad agency... after reviewing an ad they placed one of the websites I routinely check for job postings. 28 minutes later, at 2:13pm... I received an email in response, informing me the position was no longer available. Now Im not bummed at all about not getting the position or anything... its something Ive grown accustomed too over the last few months, considering the bad market. But today marks the shortest amount of time from sending out an email, applying for a postion... and getting a less than desirable response back. Not bad... although Id hate to think I could do better than that. Scary thought. Maybe I should go to WalMart and look at some stopwatches?!
