Taking a new job closer to home thinking it is going to be awesome instead of not-awesome which it turns out to be. 

What's wrong with the new job?

The Director is a dumb-ass, unqualified hippy from Vermont.  I've asked him 4 times now to find out what my Employee ID number is so I can fill out some forms for the hospital.  Clearly he doesn't know how to work the phone or follow up, or something.  Also, it's pretty clear he doesn't really understand what it is I'm supposed to do for this grant, fortunately, the project director for the initiative does, and so I can work around him. 

I'm also fairly certain that I am going to be horribly bored in this job compared to my last one.  The workplan is anemic at best, and I'm not sure how much impact it will really have.  But, I've got a job right?  I shouldn't complain too much.

Yep.  And you can use this job to stay alive while you find something more exciting.  This is important, because in this economy, that could take a very, very long time.

Dating.

Wait, have I already posted that in this thread?

It doesn't matter. Still a terrible idea that sounded awesome.
