It wasn't meant to be

Urgh, so... I didn't get the travel agent job. The interviewer said I came across lovely but the numeracy test I had to do beforehand I scored low on 😒. It sucks because I really did feel I was in with a good chance, I revised for a few days day beforehand so I felt confident answering interview based questions, but it wasn't enough. Now I am back to the drawing board.

When I got the email my heart dropped to my stomach, I couldn't stop thinking "what did I do wrong? Was it the way my hair was? Was my make-up not right?" It was awful, I felt instantly anxious and feelings of worthlessness all came rushing back. So yeah, Monday was a pretty shitty day for me.

Two days later though and I'm okay, I mean I'm a little bitter but that's to be expected. When something hasn't worked out right for me in the past my Mam has always said "It wasn't meant to be, something better is going to come along". I hate to say it but, Mothers are usually right... it's weird how they just know isn't it?

Anyways, guess what?!

I have another job interview on Friday! It's a care job working with elderly people and although it's something I never thought I'd be interested in but I can see myself flourishing in that kind of work. The people I'm closest to have always said how caring and sensitive I am so I think it could be a good fit. It will just be nice to finish work and feel fulfilled because trust me, you don't get that feeling working in retail. 👎

Maybe I didn't get the travel agent job because the care job is meant for me? Just because you really want something doesn't mean you need it. If something is meant for you, it'll happen. Sometimes the timing just isn't right so fate steps in the way. But keep positive and have a little faith! 😗
