    Hope not to jinx it but I'm this close to scoring my dream rep after months without jobs (not unusual in my field).

    My portfolio is as good as I can make it, and I last improved/updated it 3 months ago.

    Since then, none of my inquiries to other reps has gotten a reply, leaving me looking at my work with embarrassment towards the things that could have been better, the properly failed but high profile projects I can't afford not to show etc.

    These guys I want to work with are genuinely excited about it, and seem to see what I'm aiming for.

    Tonight I looked at my portfolio again and felt unexpectedly proud. I could really see how far all my hustling got me over the years when friends who gave up along the way would gently discourage some of my zero financial potential efforts, usually the ones that ultimately paid off the most.

    Anyway tonight I feel like I do belong with this rep and that everything is falling into place.

    Funny how good a little outside trust makes us feel.
