Blog post #39I'm so hot. I need to open the door. BRB. Ok So I had a job interview this morning. I officially HATE these stupid shoes. I wore two pairs of Pantyhose and it helped the back of the shoe digging into the back of my ankle. But now I have a blister on my toe. Also stupid wind exploded my hair as soon as I left the house. Had to go back and tie it up. Then I walked all the way to the place. I was SUPER HOT and sweeting lots. Looks bad for me in an interview. I found the place easy enough had to walk up 3 flights of stairs to make things worse. Then I met the guy. He seemed pretty cool. He was probably as good at interviewing as I was at being an interviewie. He did not have any spacific questions lined up or even wrote anything down. He just told me about the company and asked me about myself and we talked for about 10-15. He said I am most perfered out of the other people and Im what he's looking for. Then I left and walked all the way home. I called up the recruitment agent. Told him what happened. He said the other guy will interview someone else over the phone, but he will try get me the job. I'll have a 12 week contract and at the end either get fired of full time. He's going to see if he can get me the job starting Monday. He said he's gonna start me on ~$22NZD/$18USD per hour. Is that lots? I dunno. I'll get more if I am taken on full time. Ill know if I have a job by tomorrow afternoon or something. YAY! Thanks for reading children...

Blog post #40
I'm so depressed. So I waiting thursday. No call. Waiting friday, no call. Rang the agent up on friday afternoon. Said the guy wanted the weekend to think it over with, the agent said I was kinda nervous in the interview. I bet most of that was my sweating and being hot because I felt fine.
After then my confidence about getting the job going from the guy in the interview saying he is the sort of person they want with my experience to this not so much. I keep having doubts about it now. I keep thinking about that job I passed up that was perfect.
Anyway so the guy had the weekend to think about it. Waiting monday... no call... tuesday... no call... really doubting myself now. I call him this morning... the agent is in a meeting. So I go out, I used to really like food shopping. But not anymore. Im sick of carrying all the food back home. I got so hot again walking all the way back. I was really really over heated and dehydrated when I got back. So made me feel worse.
Anyway after a shower I called the agent again, and he says he's still waiting to hear back from the guy.
*sigh*
Thanks for reading children...

Blog # who cares ill get that wrong too
I'm a big stupid retard. BIG STUPID RETARD.
You know I've been waiting to hear back from all these jobs. Yeah well people have been calling me. And leaving me voice mail messages. Weird I did not hear anything? Why? Oh because I'm a big stupid retard. Yup so for the last 2 months I've been applying for jobs, sending away my CV (resume) however all this time I've had the wrong number on my CV. Yup THE WRONG NUMBER!!!
All because I'm a big stupid dyslexic retard and put two numbers around the wrong way. I only noticed it now because the agent guy I called today about a job told me i had a weird baby voicemail, and he left me messages.
Yup so FML. All this time wasted. Maybe I've had job offers, or people wanting to interview me. Who knows. I sure don't.
PS I did not get the job.
Why would they hire a retard anyway. Dumb bitch.

Whoa. That's awful.
But as Ferret said, pick yourself up and keep searching for jobs. At least you know where it went wrong and won't get it wrong with the next job again. Maybe you should talk with your agent? Maybe you can arrange something with the jobs?

Yeah jobs.. All my job leads in my city are gone now. I don't have anything else. The chances of jobs I can do coming up here are like maybe 1 per month. The reason I went from being the best person for the job, exactly what they are looking for, and all that to not getting the job is because the agent guy said I was not confident in the interview. But I felt fine and though I went pretty well. Im a kind of a quiet person irl but thats just who I am. So does this mean I can never get a job because Ill always bomb in the interview. I gave up a job I was offered all because the agent and interview guy were talking as if I was gonna get this job. I should have taken that job I was offered. I had the job before they axctually talked to me, i did not need an interview lol. But I declined because I thought I was going to get this other job, and also my friends are here. But my social life sucks. My friends don't talk to me. I try message them or what ever but not really any replies. They are too busy with uni assignment and crap. I think the thing that holds me back in life is change. Im scared of change. I try so hard to keep things the same, but that just messes up my life. Ever since high school, I did not want things to end, or lose friends, and by trying to stop it I was holding myself back. This time I messed up myself by not wanting to move away because I'm comfortable living here. I don't want to move because the set up is awesome. But because I am holding onto this life I now have I'm missing out on oppertunities. It's also keeping my life so very boring. I passed on the job just so I can stay here, but I'll Im doing it being bored out of my mind and sitting at home alone all day. So anyway, I'm just applying fdor jobs everywhere. I don't care anymore. Im going to ask my room mate if he would help me move. Moving is going to be hard without a car. BUt he has one. If he would take me and my stuff in his car that would be easy. I'd pay him for gas. I also need to email that other agent who I turned down the job to. I don't know if she will want to help me anymore. I feel like such an idiot.

Have you talked to the people from the faraway job? It might still be open...

What Nitro said. Really, you said that they wanted you before the interview. Just because you blew your interview doesn't mean you can't get the job anymore. Just frikkin' talk to the people of the job and your agent and you might get the job anyway.
