“….Wow! Your resume is so impressive…
…You have extraordinary credentials…
…You’re so well-spoken…
…You should go into politics…
…I can’t believe you are having a hard time finding work…
…Unfortunately, we don’t have a position…
…I don’t know anyone that is hiring…
…We would love to help…
…Are you still interested in volunteering?”
“Sure.”

I’m sorry. That is really disappointing, even with all the compliments.
Thanks, lady. Super disappointing.
Ugh. I’m sorry. That sucks.
I hope the connections are helpful in the longer term.
Me too! If anything, flattery is always nice.
I’m sorry
but they did love you! You never know what doors will open… Feel free to punch me in the face for that one
I prefer to kick in the shins. Thanks, though!
Boo on them for raising your hopes
Its only a matter of time. Employment, unlike having children, is a near certainty. It just sucks to have to wait…
That is all I do these days. Wait. It is killing me!
That really sucks! Maybe since you will be there volunteering if something opens up they will think of you.
I hope so! Ideally, I will be able to develop new skills to put on my resume. That’s helpful!
Stupid fake interview. I hope this opens up doors for you and you meet some good connections…it’s obvious they love you!
Stupid fake interview! Hopefully a door will open somewhere in the universe. Anywhere, really!
Boo hiss, I am sorry. At least with volunteering it will help with connections and experience?
I hope so! I’m just excited to do SOMETHING!
