slight disapointment

I didn’t get the job. I figured that my karma was probably not ripe for such an amazing opportunity, so I don’t have much disappointment. Oh, don’t get me wrong... living in (near) Santa Cruz is a six year old dream, working for a Dharma center is a two year old dream, but working for Vajrapani is only a few days worth of dreaming. Besides (and I don’t think I’ve mentioned this before), I will likely be the “Transportation Minister” for the 2004 Tashi Lhunpo monastery tour. That means I’ll get to drive monks up and down the East Coast. I figure this will be a karma launching pad and may lead to bigger and better things.

UPDATE: The worst part about not getting a job is not knowing why you weren’t the guy. Why, out of all the applicants, you didn’t get selected. It’s the reason I don’t go job hunting more often.

You are Amiga OS. Ahead of your time. You keep a lot of balls in the air. If only your parents had given you more opportunities to suceed.

Oh, I apologize I encouraged your application before reading on about this...(open mouth, insert foot). I’m sorry you didn’t get the call.

Believe me, I know how it feels. I’ve been trying to find something meaningful to do for pay, too, but it’s very hard to reach the “pure land” here on earth. Still, dreams die hard.

Hey, keep making offerings and setting a good intention. The right thing will turn up.
