Today, I interviewed for a full scholarship to college. In the interview I said that I was excited about the new dean because I think she’ll be able to really make improvements and bring the school back to where it used to be. After the interview, I learned my interviewer was the former dean. FML

Today, I received a call from a top-rated university accepting me into the program of my dreams to begin my ultimate career. Two weeks ago, I accepted a permanent, full time and legally-binding job position in my depressive hometown because the school had previously rejected me. FML

Today, I went to the dentist. I got a new dentist who started out a conversation about school. She asked where I went to school and if I liked my principal. After I told her I thought he was full of himself, she said she was married to him. FML

Not a good sign

Today, I went to my first job interview. I didn't think I was doing too badly, until the interviewer said, "Wait a second, you're in high school?" I explained that the guy who'd called me had said that this wouldn't be a problem. I then watched as my interviewer left his desk to "deal" with him. FML

Today, as a student reporter for our college newspaper, I interviewed the president of my university. I was surprised to get an interview with him, and because of my nerves, as soon as I walked into his office I tripped over my own feet and fell face first into the ground. FML

Today, after interviewing for a promotion to a position that was created with me in mind, I eagerly accepted a call from my boss, expecting good news. Turns out, they found a better applicant, who they don't believe will need support from the position I currently hold, so it's being eliminated. FML

Don't be mad that you said the right thing. If there was not a problem they would not of changed Deans. Stand up proud that you said it.

I agree you should know what you're talking about and you should know the major players if you are planning on making specific comments like that. That being said, I wouldn't worry too much about it...

Today, i was interviewing this really smart perspective student to determine if he should get a full scholarship, he said he was excited about the new dean because he thinks she’ll be able to really make improvements and bring the school back to where it used to be. I'm the former dean, and i brought the school to the level it is now at. FML

Sorry, but duhhh! I always ask who I'm being interviewed by/who I could be interviewed by for all my interviews for jobs. That way, when I research the school/position, I research who's interviewing me so I can kiss ass. You should've done that so you could've avoided looking like an ass.

Today, one of my scholarship applicants said she was excited about the new dean bringing the university back to what it was before the last dean took her position. I am the last dean. FML.
