to hate waiting

I had a job interview this morning and I feel it went well. I wasn't the only person they were interviewing. I hate this part. I really want the job and have no doubts that I will accept if they offer it to me, but right now Im playing the waiting game.

I know I need to move on and to try to carry on. After all someone else might get the job. Its just this part.

Yes Im creating this thread to try to distract myself a bit. I appreciate that I might not hear anything until after the weekend, but I just can't help myself hope that on Monday I will be going to work. Im scared too that if I dont get the job I will be really upset. I need to get my hopes down and to simply forget about the interview for now, but that's easier said than done.

AGGGGGHHHHHHH

I think it feels worse because Ive not got anything else in the pipeline. I had a couple of interviews last week, but they were for jobs that I had no experience and I was a bit nervous. I would feel better if I had more interviews to go to.

Ive been looking online for jobs this afternoon and there is nothing new to apply for (been looking every day) so I can't even think well there was that application which I feel was good to fall back on.

Also money is starting to become a bit of a worry now too. On the other hand it does mean I have more time for exercise ATM.

Well the waiting is over, but they have offered the job to someone else. Someone with more experience than me Sad

I knew this would happen. Id build my hopes up, get excited and then BAM. Im feeling absolutely gutted. Really need to get back to work now and I really cant see it happening any time soon.

Feel like giving up now, but know that's silly. I need to plod on and keep trying, but Im just so deflated now. There is nothing to apply for. Well there is, but nothing I can do.

Im such a failure.

You're not a failure. You just didn't have enough experience this time. Everyone who is shortlisted for interview is capable of doing the job so don't be doing yourself down.

Have a Brew, a Wine and a wallow, then put it behind you Flowers

That's what I intend to do.

Problem is that I really can't see anything Ive not applied for. Its still a bit raw. Will feel better tomorrow and next week. Just tonight.
