Fuck fuck fuckity fuck

Apologies to those whose tender sensibilities I have just offended with my language, but really that's the way I'm feeling, and I'm just too tired to come up with anything more creative or colorful.

We're not going to Indiana.

Aw, man! Has he heard back from any of the other places he applied to?

None of the rest made it to the interview stage. He's still got apps out to Central WA U, Western WA U, and (umm, I think) Cincinnati, but they're long shots. We're here until the next round of hires, at least.

At least the person who was chosen was someone else who had worked with Scott before, so that's encouraging.

I'm truly stunned, though... he's an amazing teacher, and I'm really puzzled that these schools aren't fighting each other to get him into their classrooms.

Its not personal, its just that there aren't very many jobs available. Shitty, i know.

:-( I'm so sorry. The academic market is such the shitty, shitty roller coaster. Good thoughts in your direction.

[mamagotcha.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I actually thought of you several times during this process so far. Can we rub you for good luck? ;)

Crap. :( I'm really sorry.

[mamagotcha.livejournal.com]

Thanks. Lots of new-baby snuggles and friends' shoulders have been helping.

That is the universe's signal that he needs to apply at either ACC, UT or St. Eds in Austin.

If there were openings, we'd consider it. He's at the annual Fly Meetings in San Diego... hopefully networking like a mad thing.
