Maybe all that time you spent stalking your crush's Facebook page up until the wee hours of the morning wasn't really worth it, now is it?

Guess you don't really need a job, OP, if you are not interested enough to stay awake.

Interviewer: So, now that we have the informational stuff covered, let's get down to business. Say, have you had jobs like this before? OP: Yes, I'm very skilled at this kind of thing. Interviewer: What are your best qualities? OP: I have a really positive personality! I'm optimistic, a team player, headstrong, and I can handle pretty much anything life throws at me. Interviewer: How productive are you? OP: ...................Wait, what did you say? I couldn't catch that. Interviewer: How productive are you? OP: I'm..........................................ZzzZZZzzZZzzzzzzzzZZZzZZZZZZzZzZzZzZ Interviewer: You're what? Let me restate the question: How productive are you? OP:...... *Snore*.......ZzZZZZZzzzZZZZZzZZZZzzzZZzZz *click*

Considering how desperate many people are for jobs and you apparently seem to take the interview for granted--- you ******* deserved it. I mean, don't you think if you cared for it enough/ were nervous to get the job-- falling asleep seems impossible?! Being on the phone is one thing, but understanding it's for a job--- this is such fail. Glad you fell asleep, so people who actually deserve the jobs have a better chance. :) I have a decent job myself while going to school and it's amazing seeing other people I work with have such a shitty work ethic. So many people need jobs and it seems so many people don't appreciate and deserve having the job they managed to have!! /rant

Don't you think that's a little harsh? What if shes been stressed out trying to get a job taking any interview she can and just fell asleep on accident? Its kinda rude t jump to conclusions and say she doesn't deserve the job. The world is a shithole.

80 - You have to admit it does look like the OP wasn't all that concerned about the interview, whether that was actually the case or not.
