How about this?
If you don't get the job, it wasn't the right job for you.
And there is a better one out there waiting for you.
This is a great place to find experience, strength and hope.
Glad you found us, stick around.
Hi Gabe and Boop,

Thanks for the kind words. I know I'm going to need help.

Unfortunately, about the job, it is exactly the right job for me. It's teaching in a Japanese university and in 3 years it'll be turned into a training and research center focusing on my areas of expertise. And it's tenured, which for a foreigner in Japan with only a master's degree is almost unheard of.

Still I have to keep in mind that my health is most important. Tenure won't matter if I'm worm food.

Sorry for rambling, I guess I just trying to work out my thoughts on this first night. I'll probably be up to 100 posts by tomorrow.
