Professional Rejectee

"We're sorry...," "We regret to inform you that..." and on and on it goes.

I guess you grow numb with experience; it's like an occupational hazard.

Professional rejectee—that's what I'll call myself.

I don't need to be a psychic to know how it's all going to play out.

It's annoying at this point in my life.

It'll be surprising if I can still manage to be surprised when rejection comes knocking.

A professional rejectee shouldn't be surprised by rejection.
