Well, we're not moving to Seattle

DH got his rejection letter today for the position he flew to Seattle to interview for. He's crushed - he was so sure it went really well, and he really wanted the job. Thank you all for your juju, well wishes and help in getting him out there! He asked for feedback on why he wasn't selected, so it will be interesting to see if he gets any.

I'm still hanging on to hope (at least a little) - he's moved forward a couple of steps for local Department of Corrections jobs, which would have us moving to the Springs, and has a strong possibility on an investigator job within the next few weeks. So we'll see, but for now, I'm still a Colorado Nestie :).

  • The right thing is coming, I just know it!  I'm so sorry for the disappointment, mama!  
  • This sucks.  Since you went to the expense of flying him out there, they owed you a phone call at least.  I'm sorry.

    You would think so, wouldn't you? I got a phone call rejection for a job yesterday, and I told my dad it's the first phone rejection I've ever gotten - everything has been email. So I'm not surprised. Disappointed, but not surprised.

    Thanks, ladies - and for the Springs girls, my fingers are crossed. It would be a good move for us in a lot of ways, so I hope it works out!

  • I'm sorry, that sucks.  Hopefully that means it wasn't good long-term, and the best opportunity is around the corner.

  • Those people in Seattle are foolish.  I hope your DH gets the job here or in COS.  I know its kinda bittersweet, but being the selfish girl I am, I'm glad you guys will be sticking around in CO.  Continued juju for both of you guys on the job front!!
    no identifiable siggy pictures anymore, thanks a lot stupid nest!
  • Son of a gun. I mean I didn't really want you to leave us, but I hate it when you know you are perfect for a job and then you get that awful letter. :(
