Stupid Brain, Why Did You Do That?

There are things you learn as you get older, to help you get over rejection/loss/etc.

Don't let people back into your life; don't sit and wallow in self-pity....you get the deal.

I have something to add to that list--do not look on a company's website to see who got the job over you.

I did that this morning for a job I was up for, and it was an all-around bad decision. Mainly because now I feel inadequate compared to this other person. And making myself feel worse is never a good idea.

So, word to the wise: when you get rejected for a job, don't see who got it over you. You're just going to make yourself feel worse.
