Too much experience and not enough experience

So we're in Missouri now awaiting to hear from the company's in Michigan and Texas, and Jared also applied to a place in Dallas about 3 weeks ago...

Well we've heard back from 2 of the 3. The one in Dallas informed Jared that he had too much experience for the job available (even though they were hiring for a junior copywriter - which is exactly what he is, and even though they loved his book). Hmmmm, it's interesting that being in school for 6 years = too much experience. And we also heard back from Michigan... finally. After being strung along now for at least a month they decided to "PASS" on Jared because even though they wanted a junior copywriter, and they loved his book, he doesn't have enough experience. Awesome!

So in 2 days Jared has been "passed" on due to too much experience and not enough experience.

Lovely....just lovely. Well now it's Texas or Carlie going back to waitressing. Everybody PRAY. PRAY. PRAY.

Bummer! But it wasn't meant to be. Something else will work out..just may not be exactly what you think or want at first. I have surely learned that in my life. It is hard times right now for so many.I will keep praying the Lord will bless you and lead you in the direction you need to go. We are rooting for you and wishing for the best. We miss you here. xoxoxo
