Need cheered up this washout Wednesday

Long story short.. I didn't get a promotion today. That doesn't bother me. What bothers me is who did get it. Total arsehat, but clearly an articulate arsehat (who was openly coached by one of the interviewers but that's another tribunal 🤣).

I'll come back from this stronger but for now I am having a couple of hours of designated wallowing before I need to pull myself together and get on with it. Do I drink wine and mutter about arsehats to the dog, order a massive amount of Chinese food and eat my sadness out, or go for a run?
Hit me with your solutions, or join me in my sadfest. All welcome.

Do all 3. Order takeaway, have a quick run while you wait for it to be delivered, then stuff yourself with a bowl full of wine.

Oh and lots of muttering or yelling to the dog!

I'm feeling low after losing my wonderful cat last week. She died suddenly at home. It was a week today and I've basically eaten and crafted my way through it. So it 100% agree on the Chinese food. To look up I got to actually go into work in my new job (I'm freelance so its a couple of days a week, on top of other bits). So that was exciting! I'm going to have a cuppela and some mint march makers now.

Are you in the same department as the person who got promoted? Just wait and see how it pans out for them!

Lunalovefood is super smart, do what she suggests.

Hope you feel better and find a job you're happier with soon.
