I can relate to that
I regularly come across jobs that I
know I can do but I also know I'll never be able to demonstrate that I can do the job. Recruitment has become too Americanised, with far too much value placed on aptitude tests, team exercises, and role playing. I remember a job interview with Norwich Union in which the guy running the interview had a piece of paper with his questions on - he couldn't ask me a question that wasn't on the bit of paper. Equal opportunities apparantly. More like madness to me. What happened to the days when an interview was little more than a chat with management so they developed a gut feel for your suitability.

I'm one of the country's foremost experts in the LUSID system. Raise your hand if you've heard of it dear reader... no - didn't think so
Take a break and review things, see how you feel. I can understand your wanting to make a clean break.
