Well, that sucks.

It's horrible when you feel a bit strung along. I have applied for a job in the university library four times. I got interviewed the first time and it seemed the problem was I was a first year, with no idea how things worked yet. They gave me feedback saying my application was clear and useful, highlighting my relevant skills, and my interview responses were appropriate etc., and bothered sending a separate email saying 'Can we keep your details?', not just as a consolation on the rejection.

Since then I've never even been offered an interview. I have ten years experience working in libraries, what's wrong with me?

Comfort food is a good idea. I hope you get a job soon! I'm sure you'll do great at whatever you do.

And losing your stuff on top of that...*hugs*

Wow, that sucks even worse; I would have expected something after them asking to keep your details, or at least a follow-up contact to ask if you're still interested. I'm sorry to hear about that.

Thanks for the kind words, though; I appreciate them at a time like this. *hugs back*
