Wherein I'm an Idiot, Counting Chickens, Etc.

After three weeks of nonresponse, I got a call from the dude at Dunder Mifflin. We play phone tag as I waffle and plan my stalling tactics. They want me! How much will they offer? But it's so far, and at Dunder Mifflin. But how desperate am I? But should I play hardball? Should I decline on account of impending commute insanity?

Finally, on his next call back, he leaves the message that they hired someone else.

Oh. I feel stupid now.

Well, at least they've taken the guess work out for you.

It's sort of like when you're trying to break up with someone, and they break up with you first.
