Today, I went to an interview for a job I really wanted and am qualified for. I've been looking for months. This job was perfect; close to home and great pay. Needless to say I spent quite a while preparing. Everything was going great until I had to sneeze, which forced out a loud, long fart. FML
Today, while waiting for an interview at the career that I've been spending months tailoring my résumé for, I was thrown up on by my only competitor. Guess who got the job. FML

If you aren't on anti-anxiety meds (probably should be) try taking like 4-6 extra strength aspirin at once not long before the interview. I read about a spy who did this, and he had no physiological signs of nervousness 6 times he was given the lie detector test. I use it when I have soldier of the month boards, and I always do well. Don't do it a lot (like for 2 interviews in a day, or one day after another) or you'll get ulcers though.

Yeah, try aspirin. Also, getting trained as a professional liar probably wouldn't hurt.

How long were you passed out? I'd still call back to see if you could reschedule another interview.
