Yearning for My Past Life

After a month and a half of temping, I'm back to the full-time job search. A shady interview today with a company that wouldn't answer any of my questions has scheduled me for a follow up interview tomorrow. After a bit of internet research on the company, I've decided I'll call them first thing in the morning to cancel. I need a stable job, at a strong company, working with intelligent and inspiring people. I've had enough of the shady business. This whole unemployment situation has left me far too much time to think about my life and thus, seriously missing my old life. I was jet-setting around Europe in a business suit and sweet talking CEOs of multinational corporations. Now, I'm sitting in a tiny bedroom in an over-priced apartment, scouring the internet for jobs for which I'm either over-qualified, under-qualified, or just not terribly interested in. My only hope for income is temping with morons I could probably replace if it wasn't for the big fee my agency charges companies for direct hire. I've come to realize that an MBA doesn't necessarily guarantee a strong work ethic, or even a fully functioning independent brain. When people I meet see my resume, they are shocked by my impressive international experience, and yet when I send it to potential employers I get negative responses or no response at all. So what if I don't have 5 years of experience in a certain niche? I have a strong work ethic and a certain level of intellectual curiosity that makes me a quick learner. I've met plenty of morons who look good on paper but ask everyone else in the office to do their work for them because they are "still figuring out those spread sheets" 2 or 3 months into their job. Can someone please take a chance and hire me into a stimulating environment??? I think I'd make a wonderful account manager.
