Sorry, coulnt think where i should post this

Just got a phone call telling me I didnt get the job. Managed to distract myself for a while watching tv, but now i just feel so down about it. I was sure i'd get it. But i was just kidding myself i suppose. I'd have given anything to get that job, yet they say I didnt get it because I lack drive.

I was relying on that job so much. It had training, which was the reason i was so determined to get it. And i built up so much confidence during the process. I'd only had 2 interviews before going for this job, and neither were as long or well structured as these two, but I thought that went so well.

I have no idea what to do now. I dont know what jobs to look for, or if I should get a random job and do a course in something. But i'm the kind of person that gets put off really easily, and now i just dont want to look for a job anymore. I really put my heart into trying to get this one, and look where that's left me. Rejected while they hire some school kid that doesnt even have their grades yet. As soon as I saw the other girl walk out of her interview part of me knew she'd get the job. At least, i think it was just down to me and her. Could have been more for all I know, but i think i was the only one who'd already finished school.

And this morning I got a negative pregnancy test. Probably a good think i suupose, concidering DH and I and on an income of £5000, ignoring what his dad earns.

I just feel so lost again.

And I was having the best day too

Gaby how old are you hun? I've forgot

Interviews can be so hard but they are also experience - Nothing saying theres not a job alike somewhere? how did you hear of this one?

Jo

I'm sorry for your BFN and sorry you didn't get the job as well

But look on it as a learning experience, at least the told you why you didn't get it and this is something that can be improved on next time

Don't be down on yourself about it just dust yourself off and try again

I'm 18 wobbs. And there's really no jobs like it around here. It was already an hour away on the bus, cant really look much further away than that. There's nothing with training here. And nothing that will take you on without experience. Guess I should have stuck uni out and got into debt that way. Still, i hated uni.

I just dont get how people managed to find jobs straight out of 6th form. There's nothing. Not even sure what i want to do now. My art's not good enough to commision and my books end up not being finished, so my creativity doesnt help
