How's this for irony?

2 years ago, I lost my job at Crapital One because of outsourcing.
Today I have an interview with an outsourcing company.... whose location is in the old Crapital One building.
And being interviewed by a woman I know who also worked at Crap1.
weird.

But the blows they have just a little more
Space in-between them
Gonna take a breath and try again.

Good luck Jen. Strange sometimes, how things turn out. Perhaps this will be your golden opportunity.

yeah but here's the kicker:
I really don't WANT the job! 
The hours suck, the pay seriously sucks, the hour drive each way sucks.
In two short years, my income has dropped $16,500!!!!
And if they offer me a job (btw: the interview went well),
I HAVE TO take it by virginia employment commission guidelines or I lose my unemployment benefits. And the weekly salary will be a whopping $59 a week more than what I am getting from unemployment
Sorry for bitching. I am just really really really depressed by the whole turn of events.
Editted to add: I shoulda f'ed up the interview with saying something like, "Why did you leave your previous employment?" "Well, my previous employer was a catty, conniving, maggot living in pig dung whose fat ass was jealous because I beat her in a weight loss contest."

I guess that's why they call it work. And because you dont want the job you more than likely will get it.  This one really gets my wife.. seems like generally the more you make the less you do to earn it. 
Good luck,,I think

I just had a picture of a displaced Viking shoving a Christmas Tree in a car and breaking the window. It seems relevant somehow. (Outsourcing will be the death of us all.)

Picture it being shoved up the fat ass of my ex-boss. Much better visual.
