Don't beat yourself up, modd. We all mess up, man. Tomorrow will come and with it new opportunities.

Anyway, if you don't get this job, there's a good reason. God has his purpose and his plan for you, fear not.

I'm guessing it wasn't for an English teacher, am I right?

I think we'd all be improved by a little religion, f. Proper religion, I mean.

Imagine if all those Norwegians coverted to catholicism. They'd be far less interested in the stabbing and the shooting and the exploding.

Take someone like our very own sw. If he accepted Lord Jesus Christ into his heart, he'd stop abusing and oppressing me.

Modd, meet WES. He's not the most empathic of souls, so you might want to not take everything he says to heart. tbf he knows where the bar is though.

Thanks man but felt sad to let so many someone that helped me get ready for the job. I just feel back to square one but at least got a job and just have to move onwards and forwards.

Indeed. Besides, I don't think any recruitment process that involves group exercises is going to result in a worthwhile job. Sounds like hippy nonsense to me.

It's a bit different example but I'll cheer you up.
Many moons ago there was a lady who came to the office from a local gym offering ace half price deal.

Was a rather nice gym. Anyway she was a dime piece.
Went for showround of the place. Sat down on the comfy sofas with a coffee to sign up. Trying to be cool, only to knock my coffee over all over her feet giving her some burns.

Agree. I just feel most upset i let someone down who helped me get ready for interview. I not done enough interviews and anxiety got the better of me. I just don,t know maybe i am meant to be a waste of space. but i got to change that mentallity. Can,t feel sorry for myself.

Let's see, that's the sin of pride, there's boastfulness, aggression and a total lack of empathy, as well.

Quite how you dare to enter the Lord's house with that sort of attitude on your conscience, I couldn't say.

What helped me modd. I used to label certain things as a reason why.
If I didn't want to go to the pub I'd say I had social anxiety. But then it becomes a handy excuse sometimes. It's never as bad as it seems.

I may not be confident in a lot of things in life but interviews for some reason were never a a problem for me. I always have the attitude here I am hire me if you like me.

I have never been aggressive towards you, quite the opposite in fact.

My conscience is clear. Is yours?

I wish i was at good at interviews as you are. think i need to practice doing more interviews. I am seeing someone about my anxiety and the fact is that i just need to put myself out their more.

Possibly, but that doesn't in any way change the simplicity and the beauty of the statement.

Um, are you sure you're qualified for this, sw?

Alright then, if you say so.

Bless me father for I have sinned, it has been 35 years since my last confession, and these are my sins:

You've got plenty of time, I hope?

Man up, modd. Down your local, a few pints and a good night's sleep and all will be well.

There, that's about 6 months worth of WES empathy right there. I feel positively saintly.

It's his abuse of punctuation that saddens me most. Just a question mark would have sufficed.
