I'm having a hot slice of irony pie
I've just come out of an interview for a job I really wanted, having fucked it up, to discover a voicemail from the people I interviewed for last week offering me a job I really didn't want. Gay. Gay. Gay.

Hey at least someone's offered you a job.

Yes, but it's only a six month contract
and from what they said at interview it would involve working with a complete tool.

Still better than nothing, no?
I'M BEING POSITIVE FOR YOU.

Are you sure you've got no chance for today's job?

Well, never say never and all that
I certainly don't think I impressed them, however, and they are interviewing some 15 people for 3 positions so they likelihood of me being offered it on the basis of 'being shit, but less shit than the others' is slim. Of the interviews I've had this year, it's been the worst.

Did you fuck it up in a comedy way/

I read that 'in a comely way'

On the plus side, you're not unemployable.
And don't feel that you're forced to take a job you don't want because it's the first one that you've been offered.

Pretend you haven't got the voicemail yet. When will you find out about the other job?

early next week
I can put one off til I find out about the other.

I'd cross my extremities for you
but they're currently in too much pain.

Oh Berk, I think you're right in what you imply, an affair would help things.

One day I'll learn to say "Hello, how are you?".
