I suppose I should eat my words!
I found him on Facebook by fluke. He is married to an immensely successful professor of bloody landscape architecture, who has even worked at the same place as me unbeknown to me. I have committed the sin of spending the afternoon faffing about on social media.
I never got beyond senior lecturer - though I was acting head of department for a bit - never mind professor and am about to be made redundant!
Seeing her underlined my lack of achievement - she is president of this, that and the other, and there is me with only 10 days left in a job. Great comparison. Though I have taken comfort from looking at her and thinking that she is very blokish-looking. Gosh I am a sorry case am I not?
Aarrgghh!!!!!!!

Re: I suppose I should eat my words!
No u are not at all a sorry case. A job is a huge necessity but they will follow u once this tenure is over. U please have the faith and belief. Again social media is a huge set back, and seeing him married can be very disappointing. Sometimes we feel everything is going wrong, but its a circle and the wheel keeps moving. There are many of us in this forum who actually worked on themselves (including me) and now we are looking ahead in life for someone better. I still believe we can get the person back but currently if your priority is the job, lets ask the universe for that and be ready to receive the manifestation. I wish u lots of luck. Sending u love n energy.

Re: I suppose I should eat my words!
A friend has told me that this is the universe's way of getting me to stop work (this is nonsense and I don't believe a word) and that by "looking over my shoulder at someone else's achievements" no wonder I am finding it hard to get a job and I have a mental illness.
This is nonsense - I found out about this woman yesterday, and have been going for interviews since the end of November so they are not related.
I get so cross when people say things like this, even though they are meaning to be helpful.
