DIDNT GET THE JOB
I just got a letter this afternoon that I didnt get the job that I had interviewed for I don't get it.... The first interview went great... the HR person that interviewed me said that I was perfect for the position... she even wanted me to meet the VP right away, I waited an hour for him and she came and told me that he was tied up and so I rescheduled. When I met with him on Tues, he asked me the same questions, and i thought it went well... i did get a vibe from him though that he was an "anti-fat" person... i dont know if this makes sense to anyone else... and the letter that i received said that I wasnt a good candidate for the position, but hr said i was perfect....I have 10+ years experience and have a degree.... it was an entry level position.... For the life of me, I cant think of any reason they i didnt get it!! i am so upset right now that i just want to crawl under the covers and never come out.... I feel like I dissapointed my huband even though he says f**** them.... he is good to me... i dont what I would do without him.. he's my angel.. to top it off... tonight is my psych appt... perfect timing... knowing myself, I'll get hysterical and he'll think i'm nuts! I dont get it....

Gia, I'm sorry you didn't get the job. But ya know what? I believe everything happens for a reason. I will never be able to get a teaching position in a public setting as long as I weight what I weigh, I know that. But I work in a small, Christian school with small classes and am able to work with kids on a more one to one basis. My co workers are wonderful! I wouldn't trade this job for one in the public schools that pays 4 times what I make now. So chin up, girlfriend, you just haven't gotten to the best job saved just for you! (((HUGS)))

I'm sorry you didn't get the job. I know how you feel because I feel I have been facing that problem the past few months. With some of these doctor's I have been interview with. Let's face it, people don't like to see "fat people". Which makes me sick. I got so mad at one place I wrote him a letter telling him off.
Oh and the best part was he was fat himself. Yet his staff are all thin. I was we could sue people like that.
But after awhile it gets to you. Let me tell you something if I own my own company I would hire fat people no matter what size they where. Just to prove a point not all of us are lazy and can't do the job.
But I don't have the money, only the dream
Just hang in there. Not everyone out there is a jerk on wheels. I know there are some good bosses out there that is going to hire you and me one day and not see size. But what we can do and bring to their companies to make them better.
God bless
