Coming or going

Today, I got a call about a job interview, saying I was hired. I was ecstatic, until they called me back and said they'd called the wrong applicant. They called again later, saying there'd been a mistake and I really was hired. When I went in to confirm it, they said they'd never heard of me. FML

Today, I had an interview for a pretty interesting job. Everything was going smoothly until I referred to their company by the wrong name, not once, but three times. They politely corrected me each time, but I could see the resentment in their eyes, especially because it was the name of their main competitor. I probably won't be getting the job, huh? FML

Sounds like that company needs to get their stuff together. But sorry OP. Hope you find a good job one day.

I probably wouldn't want to work for a company that couldn't even get their applicants correct. Either way, good luck with the job hunt, OP.

Judging by that you'd of probably been CEO after your first week, then a janitor by the end of the month.

Perhaps it's best you don't work there. Imagine if your paycheck was late.

If they can lose your application, they can also lose your paycheck... Its probably for the best your not working for them.
