aibu to feel as fed up as dh

[bambam30]

he went for a 2nd interview today and now we are waiting for yay or nay- my dh was convinced from 1st interview that it was his job [wrong i know -but we are desperate] and now we just sittin waitin for an answer i just wanna cry and hide and i have to be all strong and saying it will be alright it will all work out and i just want to cry aibu or just behaving like a complete spoilt brat?

You aren't behaving like a spoilt brat! You are hoping for the best and it is the worry of having to wait and not having any clue which way it will go.

Good luck, I hope he gets the job.

thankyou i really hope he does too

When will you hear?

not sure maybe today -they said we would definately know by monday. I hope we find out soon another weekend of waiting aarrghh sorry i know it sounds so over the top when you put it down in writing but it is just so stressful in our house at the minute we are also waitng for a reply from solicitors cos you may have seen other threads my dh was made redundant but it turns out he was unfairly dismissed and we live in the same village he used to work and his previous employer is bad mouthing him and yet we have it in writing that he made dh redundant because of financial difficulties i just wish it would all sort out

oh bambam have just been there with dh - he had a job interview last week and had been out of work for 7 years and is 46 - we were on tenterhooks for what felt like forever! It is awful, the waiting, you have my sympathy and I really hope he gets it! (dh got his)

Miaou,how is your dh getting on with his new job?

thank you for asking moondog! It is going fine I think, though just induction atm so not "doing" much. He seems quite excited about the prospects there (there is scope for him to move onto a more technical team at some point)

any news yet bambam?

bambam30, been there before. DH was very ill for a long time and it took a loooong time before he got another job. WHen he got that job, he was unhappy, but we just had DD1 so we did not have the luxury of him quitting. He started going for interviews for other jobs, and every time he got excited and felt he was going to make it, he would not get over the last hurdle. I had to muster up all the +ve energy in me and say it's all ok, there would be others - but in one particular case - we wanted it soooo much, and after 5 rounds of interviews he gave me that call with the familiar voice and i knew he didn't get it and i just burst into tears. Couldn't deal wiht it all the more frustrating as i felt it really wasn't his fault as he tries his best.

6 months later, he found a new job .
