[QUOTE="Lil, post: 634036, member: 17309"] Today's the day. Interview at 1 p.m. You know, a newcomer at our church told me last Sunday she was hired on the spot last Tuesday at the same factory. (I had mentioned to her the Sunday before that they were hiring, as she had said she was looking for work...just being helpful.) This Sunday she tells me that she went on Tuesday and they hired her, all because she woke up last Sunday and thought she'd try out our church. She felt like it was a sign. I'm happy for her, but I keep thinking about it and finding it hard to work today. She was hired the same day he said he went. I do actually think he went...but why wasn't he interviewed? Maybe the HR person was so unimpressed they didn't bother to talk to him more? Yesterday I couldn't help myself but to tell him to give himself that best chance by actually cleaning himself up and wearing interview appropriate clothing, and to remember, if he doesn't get it, it's likely because he has no job experience and he can get something else. His dad limited himself to saying, "If you don't get it and are all upset and having a meltdown, DON'T call your mother until you calm down. Don't upset her at work!" I keep finding myself dwelling and nervous. I hate this feeling, because I know I'm helpless here. It's all on him. Keep fingers crossed for him please...and maybe a little prayer wouldn't hurt. I just am expecting the worst. [/QUOTE]
