As a client of salesforce_bulk_api, I expect to recover from API errors.

It appears as though that the current job.rb file errors out on occasion, claming:

salesforce_bulk_api-0.0.10/lib/salesforce_bulk_api/job.rb:35 undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass

I experience this issue pretty consistently around 1AM PDT. It's unclear if this is a limitation of the API or there's some sort of issue with the salesforce_bulk_api gem itself.

Before any action can be taken, I think it might be useful to first get some more information about the status of each call by providing a success, error, and complete callback so that clients of salesforce_bulk_api can inspect the status of each job, respectively.

I'm currently facing the same issue, considering it was working previously, I suppose it's maybe related to users not having enough permissions or something similar.

EDIT:
Note in my case, I couldn't create Campaign due to missing Marketing User permission. XmlSimple.xml_in was raising the error (nil reference), it should be handled better, maybe, by the gem.
