Couldn't this have happened three weeks ago?

The translation company I would almost sell my soul to get a job with just sent me a proofreading test so as to keep me on file as a linguistic QA reviewer if it turns out they need another one in the future. Problem is, it's a part-time on-site job, and I couldn't do it during normal business hours now that I have this Harvard job. I think I'll take the test anyway, since I'd really like them not to forget about me.

I know this is how job-hunting works, but I really wish it wouldn't.
