Man, sucks when an earthquake strikes and it rocks you awake 10 minutes before your alarm does. I don't wanna wake up 10 minutes early, damnit! Let me finish my sleep!
First World problems? Eh, yeah....'s all I know, though.
As Bud strolls down the street he looks up and notice's a sign hanging on an old haunt that he used to like to visit. He was going to keep going but decided to stop and have a look inside to see what's up. He noticed it's kind of quiet now but still a few regulars around just hanging at the bar having a discussion. Bud was going to approach and join in but decided it would be best to just observe and listen. No need to interject himself. He noticed on the sound system that the new Priest was playing. He smiled to himself thinking that no one here would believe that he thought this might be their best album yet. Bud holds up his drink and unknowingly to those still around sends cheers from the back of the Cafe. He finishes his drink and quietly slips out the door unnoticed.
...still my favorite thread. I miss this. Take care.

While listening in on the boys' discussions and downing a glass of Cuba Libre, even in her buzzed state she notices Bud's silhouette leave the Cafe. Sad that she missed him by mere seconds, she gives a silent "cheers" to Bud.
.......Bud! Nice seeing you again. Glad to see that you're loving the new album! I love it, too.

Sorry to hear that, but I agree with them and think that there may have been other factors not related to you. There is no way of knowing but don't feel it was your fault (unless you really know you messed up on purpose, which wouldn't be making you feel so bad if that was the case)...anyway, remember that there are always many opportunities to come and probably this was not the one for you heavy metal works in misterious ways, they say

Thanks, HB! This last interview was a big loss, but you're right. There is always next time.
you might have been very good for the job. someone else might have been great. maybe the interview was a factor, maybe someone else applied who did it before. keep you chin up, practice interviews. If you can get someone to do mock interviews do that if not practice them in front of a mirror. record yourself. there is always next time. good luck

Ah, ain't no knowin' my friend....just ain't no knowin'.
So whatchu're saying is...they went through the trouble of dangling this non-existent position in front of me, decided that it would be fun to fuck with me. Huh.
*slides empty glass in front of Guido*
Pour me several, please.

So...say that you are told about getting a higher position at the company you work for. You are put in touch with the manager, and go through a phone interview with them. You go through the specifics of said job, answer a few questions, and at the end of the interview, feel that you would be more than capable of completing the tasks requested by this position, provided some training was done. During the waiting process, your co-workers tell you things along the lines of, "Oh, you've got this one in the bag." "You'll definitely get that job." "An email from HR? Hope it's a 'Congrats!'". NOW? It turns out you didn't get the job after all. Hell, you didn't even get to the in-person interview.
This position was offered to you on a fucking SILVER PLATTER! How much did you actually have to FUCK UP for it to just slip away like that??
......and that was the question to myself early this morning upon seeing that rejection email. I failed not only myself, but my co-workers. Heh. Well, guess all those trolls were right. I am just one special type of LOSER.
