Man, 100 applications is rough, I feel you on that tired and proud mix. That's awesome it came from the one you almost skipped though, timing is such a crapshoot. Congrats on the offer, you earned that.

Spent $340 on a wifi router that died in 11 days, what a waste

I used to figure a router dying that quick was just bad luck, but after seeing how common this is I'm not so sure. Two weeks to get your money back on a $340 paperweight is rough, hope the cheap one holds up for you.
