Today, I went to a job interview. It would have been fine if I had remembered it was over the phone, and not in person. I drove two hours. FML

Ok guys, figured I'd give a quick update. Thanks to all of you who realized it was a mistake anyone could make! Lately I've been looking for a job, so I have a lot of interviews to keep straight. I had this interview, and another one tomorrow and they are both in the same town, I thought the interview tomorrow was the phone interview, and the one today was in person. Unfortunately I made a mistake, but I've learned to definitely keep my things more organized. The interviewer also completely understood and let me do it in person anyways. Hopefully you all learn from my mistake

At least you showed dedication or so he thought I hope.

So did you have it in person or over the phone?

I hope you were planning on moving closer to your job.. That's a long ass drive.

Yes, wherever I end up getting a job, I plan to move.

Oh yes, I'd better lie. Every day I will be commuting that long trip, by car. I guess I'd just better hope that I won't forget it's my day off and drive that long way again ;)

At least you showed you really cared about the interview!

I'd make a day out of it, go to lunch or something

Hey, at least it shows your dedication.

May be they will take it in a positive way and higher you for your dedication.

Why are you conplaning though? If you get the job that's how far you will have to drive.

If you had the time to plan out and drive 2 hours, how did it never occur to you that it wasn't in person?

I'd have been more upset about getting dressed for no reason, than the drive.
