Today, in preparation for a third interview for my dream job, I spent an hour selecting the perfect outfit. I hung everything on my bedroom door and went to shower. My dog decided to play tug-of-war with the clothing and redesign the shoes. The only thing to survive unscathed was the hanger. FML

Today, I had an interview for my dream job. I spent all of last night preparing, researching the company, and making sure everything was perfect. My interview was for 8am. I woke up at 10:30 to an alarm that had not gone off. 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

Lucky or what?

Today, I put on what I thought was my "lucky" sweater for a job interview. Halfway there, I noticed my reflection in a car window and realized it was covered in cat hairs of various colors and a faded spaghetti stain from last week that apparently hadn't come out in the wash. FML

Today, I was prepping for an interview after several months of unemployment. I had just finished brushing my teeth when I reached back and grabbed a towel behind me to wipe my face. Turns out it wasn't a towel, it was my newly dry-cleaned suit jacket that my wife had put there for me. FML

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

Today, while waiting for an interview at the career that I've been spending months tailoring my résumé for, I was thrown up on by my only competitor. Guess who got the job. FML

Today, I had a job interview. I have major OCD, and I had to sit in a room with a man covered in cat hair, struggling to even survive for an hour and a half. FML

Today, I went to collect my clothes out of the dryer. Thinking it would be fun for my small dog, I brought her with me. I put her down and let her sniff around while I put my clean clothes in a basket. I turned around from putting more clothes in the dyer to catch her peeing in my clean clothes. FML

Today, I spent a hundred dollars on new "business casual" clothes and took two hours to get ready for my interview with a government agency. My interviewer was blind. FML

Today, as I was getting dressed after a shower, I spent a good 30 seconds searching for my underwear… which I'd already put on at that point. FML

I think you might still get the job if you wear your birthday suit right ;-) but, seriously, I apologize for my kind. We can't help it; we love tug-of-war. FYL, OP!

Show up naked! There's a position that just opened up from some tight-ass who determined that flirty fun in the office was "sexual harassment." You'll get the job if you show them you are willing to "play ball."

Time to get a cat.. or learn to control your pets, maybe close the doors behind you?

Riddle me this, riddle me that, me thinks you really ought to get a cat.

In all seriousness though, sorry that happened OP. Don't fret about the clothes though, as long as they are clean and look professional you'll be alright, plus what matters most is how you behave. Good luck! Hope you get the job! (Yes my comment about the cat was poor, but I just started my training with Riddler. Also, I love dogs, I was just trying to be funny/witty/comedic relief/stupid, however you'd like to put it.)

And you couldn't have gone to the interview on ANY other dress because...? FYL about the loss of the dress, but YDI for the rest....

I hope that wasn't your only outfit. That sucks big time. Next time maybe keep the dog in another room while getting ready.

Guessing you didn't spend an hour staring at the same clothes so hope you were able to put an acceptable Plan B together. And not YDI but heads up - never trust a dog, or at least know it very well!
