dealing with job applications (Patreon)

you’ve been applying for jobs for the past week, and it’s been nothing but rejections and silence. it’s so frustrating for you, you just want a chance to get your foot in the door somewhere. i can see the toll all of this has taken. it’s late in the afternoon when i come up behind you. you’re seated at your laptop, finishing up another application. my arms slide over your shoulders as i wrap myself around you. it’s exhausting, you’re exhausted. i spin the chair so i can see your face. you fall into my chest. it’s going to be okay, sweetheart. i know you’re going to find the perfect fit. it just takes time.
