I just found out that I did not get a job that I had hoped for. What ways do you build yourself back up or at least self-soothe?

My wife is very upset with me right now because I told our family I already had the job before it was announced very publicly that someone else will be doing it instead.

    Climbing random fences is always a good trick. Also random photo ops to make yourself feel and look better than you are can work. If all else fails try contacting the CIA or a PMC to try and bail you out from your family and coup a random country.

      these are good suggestions and I have actually tried them in the past. they worked well at the time, but the CIA and PMC no longer return my many phone calls, letters, or emails.

        I'm sure there's some "political consultancy firm" or new PMC that needs an interim or vice president for their new coup plan. Belarus and Lebanon look like the territories they are interested at the moment, maybe apply for a job there, you'll definitely earn a lot of money.

          I will try to find one of these. The last PMC that I worked with was not successful at their jobs.

            Yeah I saw that on the news, maybe they'll do a better job in Belarus or Lebanon and you'll get your dream job as interim president in no time!

              I really only want to be president interim. Once given a presidency, I will help restore democracy within a reasonable amount of time. Some very kind senators told me that it would be 1-2 decades of work, but I am willing to do that for my people.

                Ah, a faithful public servant that takes advice, that's very rare these days. Wish you the best of luck in becoming an interim president somewhere

                  Thank you. It has been my dream since I was a small niño.
