A Watched Pot Never Boils

Waiting to hear back about this job is the PITS. I feel like I am never going to get a real “career” job. Government jobs are SO competitive, and I can't believe I even interviewed, and now I am doubting myself. I've convinced myself I bombed out in some major aspect of the interview because the interviewer asked me if I WANTED to continue on to the writing test, which, retrospectively sounds like “if you want to you can, but it won't improve your chances.” But the interview without the writing test was nearly two hours-if I failed half way through, wouldn't she have sent me on my way? Ugh I hate waiting! Guess I'll send out a few more resumes in the meantime.
