APHIE'S RANTS AND PIECES
September 04, 2004 - 12:12 p.m. - Consequences of Falling I seem to be suffering from serious career drought. In the past month I have received about 2 rejection letters from 2 of the biggest law firms in Atlanta, and then the smaller ones that I have applied to don't even have the courtesy to send in any letter acknowledging my application in any manner whatsoever. It's like I have been blacklisted in some Paralegals Anonymous community so any law firm that sights my resume just shakes their head and doles out the rejection, as if they were all warned of my application. It is a little perturbing. I find it greatly hard to believe because within a few years, hopefully if what I am planning falls into place, I don't want to apply for paralegal positions anymore. I hope to be applying for the big daddy-o positions, or something that closely resembles it. So if I cannot make it as a paralegal, which basically every young girl in Atlanta has suddenly become, how can I make it as that other position. Hmmm... I am a little worried. I keep telling myself that rejection is just one person's opinion of you, and the fact that Mel Gibson got rejected a million times over for that Passion of Christ movie from the big studio execs but he didn't let that deter him. He still made the movie and he made bags of money from it. This is just a pitstop on the road. Time will come when they would wish they had me. I really shouldn't let this deter me, right? I don't know. The market here is impenentrable. Jeez! But maybe I am not really as smart as I thought I was. On the one hand I don't want to sulk but then I go to the mailboxx and there they are, signed big law firm who doesn't want to have anything to do with me. I sometimes feel they have the letters ready waiting for me to apply. You know? That's all. My life, my career, my passion. back track - fast forward - history aphie's chronicles - aphie's transcripts aphie's other personality - aphie's diary rings tell aphie you read her work -
