Today, I finally got a job interview, and I thought it went amazing. They were supposed to call me today or tomorrow with the news. Today is also the day that my phone company decided to cut my phone off. FML

fyl definitely, however, you CAN just go back to the business you had the interview with and tell them your phone isn't working and just ask if they've made a decision yet.

For once, you don't deserve it...FYL indeed! Get help from a friend or neighbor, call them and explain and come up with a back-up solution! Good luck OP!

i dont feel sorry for you. first off, if you call the employer from a friends, neighbors, or relatives phone stating your phone service provider is having problems with your service, and to contact you at this number, you would know if you had the job or not. plus, calling and telling the company that shows you are awaiting word from them, and that greases the wheels a bit. remember, the squeeky wheel gets the oil. other then that, it sucks that your struggling and have to go through this, plus the bad timing and all. so its a 50/50.

YDI should have paid your phone bill instead of the Internet bill
