Doctor appointment went well. Told my doctor what was going on.

Don’t have all my lab results back. Don’t have the psychiatrist report.

But he put me on an antidepressant for depression so we’ll see how that goes.

A psychologist got back to me about putting me on a wait list and I’m trying to call them but no one is answering so I left a message.

Hopefully they call me back soon.

Volunteer job went well today. There were only 5 cats there today so there wasn’t a huge amount of work to do.

Home now. Gonna eat lunch later then get ready for the interview. I definitely need to change. The volunteer job at petsmart is messy. A lot of times you have to kneel on the floor to clean out cages and sometimes litter gets on there or their water dishes spill and it makes a mess on the floor. We clean the floor up when we’re finished of course. But yeah I don’t want to wear jeans I kneeled in cat litter in to an interview lol I’m wearing a pair of dress pants and a long sleeved shirt with a cardigan.

I hate waiting, I’m the most impatient person when it comes to waiting for things like this. Interviews, appointments, phone calls. Etc. I hate waiting , I like getting things done early in the day. 2 1/2 more hours to go

Omg same. I like to have appointments in the morning so I’m not fretting all day.

Tomorrow I have a doctors appointment at 145pm and I’m going to be thinking about it all day.

On Sunday my dietician appointment is 230pm and I’ll be waiting alll day.

Yeah it’s so annoying. Because I can’t focus on anything else. Most people I feel would be like yay I don’t have to go till later but not me, I can’t focus on anything until it’s done , not even like watching a show or anything. I just watch the clock lol

So I have a question for those of you who have experience with job interviews. Do they call you back or do they tell you immediately during/after the interview whether or not your hired

I have no experience with this because this will be my first actual job. The only other thing I did was a temp job in a factory for a couple weeks but they didn’t even do an interview.

My first retail job they told me right there they would hire me. But my last two jobs in white collar settings they called me a couple days later. I guess it depends on the industry. I wouldn’t be surprised if they told you then and there.

Thanks, that makes sense. I guess I will find out

I hope the fact that they’re urgently hiring works in my favor. Interviews seem intimidating but I’m sure it’s not extremely scary I mean it’s Burger King. They called me the morning after I put my application in (I put it in the night before) so they seem kind of really in need of employees right now.

I don’t see why they wouldn’t hire you. Especially if they really need workers. They would probably take you on at a probational period (typically 3 months).

You got this! Interviews do suck, I totally get that.

What sucks is if I have an appointment in the morning I get it over with and don’t worry all day waiting for it. But then I lose motivation and can’t focus on work afterwards.

But it works the other way that if I have the appointment in the afternoon I don’t get any work done all day because I’m worried about my appointment.

It’s basically just a wasted work day either way.

The other night, I was at a dinner - And everything was so clear (Like in real life - The food, outline of the inside of the building, forks, etc), I told someone "Yeah I'd really like to visit South Africa, see the animals and stuff" (But very important: I could see my imagination just like if I were awake, but I was also seeing the dream and the person I was talking to as well, walking to the table..)

Just madness.. I tried guided imagery before, and it is relaxing..

The interview went well I felt for my first interview ever. They said I would hear back by Thursday on whether they’re hiring me

I asked them the pay rate, whether the schedules would be set or vary, and how soon I can start if they hire me

Here’s the full breakdown I gave to my sister

Thank you me too, now it's just another waiting game

If I don't get this it's not the end of the world, I can keep trying , at least I'm making an effort

Good luck, I hope you'll get it, if not, there are scads of other places to try. You'll have a job very soon. I think they might need you on a schedule that clashes with PetSmart. (Why they didn't hire you on the spot.)
