Wish things would turn around

I guess I am not the most patient person in the world, I feel like I do whatever it takes to better myself and always seem to be dissappointed. I recently interviewed for a position and of course I was excited and told a few people at work. Well one lady at work with a good career decided to apply for it as well. She drilled me about the job and would not have any idea if I didn't tell her since the posting was not in her area. So now I am bummed about this because is had a potential career perspective for me which a fresh outlook and I am sure if not her someone in the field for years will get the job. My hair is growing and falling out at the same time and people are just driving me crazy lately. Sometimes I just want to shut myself out from the world. I could write forever about how I feel, but time is limited.

Thanks for listening.................:)

Hey Dana, sorry to say when it comes to co-workers and upcoming positions, interviews, mums the word girl. Don't tell anyone anything about it until you are hired, I know it's too late for that now but there's always next time. Don't shut yourself out, go out instead, maybe there's something better down the road :) Hugs.

Yes, I have learned that "All's fair" for job-thirsty seekers, especially in the graphic art world. No one really cares that a friend is also after the same job when a livlihood and health plan are in the offing. Now I never tell anyone about a job opening until after I have been hired myself! Make sure you write that thank-you letter for the interview, reminding the one who interviewed you of your unique skills and something memorable (but professional) that you discussed, along with a comment about how much you would like an offer and when you would be ready to start. That might put you ahead of the other applicants in their minds.

I am hoping that I am the fresh new person who can put light on this position. I knew there would be applicants just not someone in my department since she has a good job and works part-time (by choice) The unfortunate thing about my workplace is my boss could potentially ruin the chance for me as well since it is an internal bid. I really hate my department they treat me like I am a maid instead of a human. I am a smart woman with a ton of great ideas and no one takes me seriously. I work for a Catholic facility and feel people have no values whatsoever. It is nothing but bickering and backstabbing. I apoligize for the negative mood, just trying to find that opportunity to open for me. TRY TO STAY POSITIVE I keep telling myself. I know it took the previous person in my position 2 years to find a job with a masters degree. I will take your advice and send a note to the manager who interviewed me.

Thanks for the Hugs and feedback.............so glad I found great people out there to listen to me vent.
