You're obviously frustrated, disenhartened, depressed.   Obviously or you 
wouldn't have lashed out at someone who was making an encouraging statement. 

I've got some advice for those of you looking for a job at the moment.  The 
advice is sound, and while it may not result in you landing a job, it will 
help you to see what you personally might be doing wrong.  If you like, I'll 
post it - but someone's gotta ask.
