Today, I was at a second interview for a job that I really need as I got laid off last month. Midway through the interview, I went to cross my legs and realized I had 2 different shoes on. FML

The old switcheroo

Today, I had a job interview. I didn't have any clothes suitable for the interview, so I went to the store early and bought some there. After the interview, I went to return the clothes, because they were so expensive. The hiring manager saw me. FML

Today, I had a job interview. I have a nervous tendency to rub my foot against the bar under the table. After the interview I noticed I had been rubbing my foot against the interviewer's leg. FML

Today, I went in for an interview for my first ever job. Just seconds after meeting the boss, I slipped on the linoleum floor. I was wearing a skirt. FML

The price is right

Today, I wore my new shoes to work, feeling confident. Halfway through the day, I found out that I'd forgotten to remove a giant price sticker on the left sole. My boss pointed it out during a meeting, as I crossed my legs. FML

Today, I had a job interview for an amazing opportunity. Too bad my nerves made me forget what the role was and where it was, mid-interview. FML

Today, after a spate of bad ones, I was in another job interview trying my hardest to give a good impression. After answering a few questions, I realized to my horror that while I was talking I was swiveling my chair from left to right like a nervous child. FML

Today, I wore a new pair of shoes to work. By lunchtime, my feet were covered in blisters and I had to limp my way through the rest of the day. FML

Ahaha. They didn't notice if they didn't bring it up in the interview, or stare at your feet. So you've probably got nothing to worry about.

Did you not get the job? And if you only had 1 pair of each type of shoe: dress, sneakers, flip flop, and work like a normal person this could have been avoided.

If you walk real fast, they probably won't notice.

Aw damn, I hope the interviewer found it amusing if they noticed at all. I'm sure you didn't put on two different color shoes.

Oh, the sheer agony of shoes that don't match. She put on a tennis shoe with a sneaker, the sheer horror will end the world!

The man who taught the CEO of eBay negotiation skills once told me that the one body language signal with THE highest correlation with failed deals is...you guessed it, crossed legs. If memory serves, in the experiment they conducted not one of the subjects that crossed his/her legs got a deal.
