I know this is news to exactly nobody, but job hunting sucks balls.

I hear that's a good way to get a job and a raise

Create a generic cover letter/resume combo file and apply for a bunch of jobs through recruitment companies at the moment. It's the end of the month so they'll all be looking to maximise their commission. Aim for jobs that have been up for close to two weeks as well, they'll be closing soon

We should start a support group.
