Frustration

There is no way that I could be this much of a pushover. I had to have been more aggressive in another life. Here is the deal. I've been at my current job for almost 4 years and in that time, I have not received a decent raise or a promotion. Why do I stay? I guess I am just comfortable and don't feel like really pursuing anything better. This is not so. I worked my ass off for 2 years to get my MBA this past October and I have been job hunting but so far, no luck. I keep receiving calls back from the jobs i've interviewed for and they tell me that they have found others more qualified. I'm sorry but I don't see how someone who has een an accountant for almost 8 years and now has a Master's degree, could not be qualified for a Staff Accountant position. I do everything that a supervisor does but without the title or money. I don't see how I keep missing out on these jobs. The only thing I can think of is that I am sabotaging the interview and not even realizing it. Jim tells me all the time that I need to grow some balls and get out there more. (Besides the fact that that could make him gay but ewww. LOL) I just don't understand it. I'm not whining like my sister says but I am just really frustrated. This was all brought on by a phone call I received today by an employment agency that I was using to help me on my search. The woman didn't even remember meeting with me almost 2 months ago (some impression I made on her, huh?). She told me about a bookkeeping position that she has that it turns out I don't fit. Oh well. I'll just keep on looking.
