It's made worse by children asking for things you can't afford. At least they're not my children, so their bitter disappointment will only affect me temporarily. Meanwhile and much more importantly, job hunting sucks. Especially at the end of the year. No one will make decisions. No one will even freaking call back. Whatever happened to rejection letters? Can't I even get a rejection email? Just a 'your resume indicates that you're horribly overqualified for this position' email? Apparently it takes three months or something like that to find a job that pays $40,000, and you're supposed to add on another month for each $10,000. So I guess I still have some time to go....
In the meantime, everyone gets tiny presents spread out over the course of the whole year.
