I Hate People Sometimes

Sometimes, I hate the people who come to me looking for work.

For example, someone emailed their resume to me for a job & I spoke with them about  the position.

He told me the salary he would work for to do the job.

"Great! I'll get back to you."

I call him back.

"They would like to speak with you. It is Blah Blah Corporation."

"I'll only work for them as a consultant at $100 p/h."

Why didn't you tell me that before?

"Why is that?"

"I'll only work for them for $100 p/h."

"Have a nice day."

So I notice my anger rising and I want to walk to the refrigerator and eat something. I want to ring this person's neck. It's the part of my work I truly dislike . . . the insanity of human beings.

So I won't go to the refrigerator except to get a glass of water. I will feel angry and not take it out on myself for being fooled by a candidate again. I won't eat myself into gaining weight because someone is just cruel and deceptive.
