Some rejections hurt more than others.

In the back of my head I was dreading that I'd get a job that I wouldn't be able to honor the commitment due to a better offer coming up.

When you are unemployed, you apply for a lot of jobs that you may not normally consider if you already had a job. Beggars can't be choosers.

Well, I can focus on my second interview.

Besides there will always be a dream job for me to desire as long as I'm not at the top of my profession or independently wealthy.
