I Didn't Get The Job

You may have heard by now, but I didn't get the job of Island Caretaker of Hamilton Island on the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.

Yes, I'm disappointed, but I feel most badly for American Girl and FranIAm who won't be able to visit me with their families. American Girl, as you'll recall, was ready to uproot her life to come work for me as my official cocktail server on the island.

It's all probably worked out for the best. It turns out that I'd have to clean the pool. Who has time to do that?

    I know! Believe me, I agonized over that when I found out I didn't get the job. I was more worried about you and how you'd take it then I was about my own disappointment - ESPECIALLY since the job had clearly been promised to me as I reported in the original post.

    But come on, we really didn't want the unduly burdensome task of cleaning the pool did we?

    I did hear that Murphy-Goode Winery is hiring . . . how about this job? http://www.areallygoodejob.com/overview.aspx
