I applied for this job. A man from the company called me up since he found my CV interesting. Hurray!!! Then I point out to him that I am eager to start as soon as possible, because I don't have anything to do, since I had to leave the company I used to work for. Silence. No, he had not understood that I was one of those who had to leave the company. Shit. Why did I need to tell him the truth, when he wasn't even asking for it?
They believe the best ones already have a job. They don't expect a brilliant person to become redundant after many years in the same company. Companies usually want to keep their best employees, and not pay a fortune to get rid of them. I'm fully aware of that and I completely understand it.
I should stop being such an honest Swedish fool who tells the truth...
