It seems you are always stressing about something.
Here is a thought... if you were married and you lost your contract job what would you "present" to your W? A frazzled, unsure, stressed out, meek, I can't handle it persona? Or would you present a calm, cool, confident and "man with a plan" persona?
Which would be more attractive to a woman? You know the answer. You can't just act the part around your W, you need to act it ALL the time.
Have you followed up on the suggestion that was offered a few days ago? Did you ask the HR dept. of the company you are contracting at for an informational meeting?
