So do you have any actual advice or are you just here to tell me that I'm doing it wrong? I invite constructive criticism, but I get enough destructive criticism as it is. I don't need any more.

He provided plenty of great insight, do you not see it?

His emphasis is on: completion, budget, and timeframe. That's pretty much accurate. Being a good salesman or marketer is nice too. Nothing else matters. Everything else is a distraction or needless worry.

I understand what he said. What I don't understand is how someone in my situation shows evidence of completion, budget, and time frame. I suppose my final project will hit two of the three, but I have no way to prove that I will deliver under budget.
if you deliver on time, you deliver on budget...
Well that's actual advice boy, it's up to you if you still want to think that someone is going to hand you a job just because you need one.
Here's some advice for you: Stop being condescending. Implying that I am ignorantly expecting someone to give me a job I don't deserve is both arrogant and rude.

Good luck.

I never said you didn't deserve a job, that's an invisible script of yours... all I'm saying is that you're doing it wrong by focusing in the wrong things.

Nowadays telling you the truth is being arrogant and rude, oh well... good luck to you boy, I'm not the one in need for a job.

Also.. you should drop the "short term" employers like commitment.
