Today, I had a job interview. I have major OCD, and I had to sit in a room with a man covered in cat hair, struggling to even survive for an hour and a half. FML

I'm gonna go ahead and assume it was because on his way to the job interview he met a cat.

He probably owns a cat and and the cat hair detected he was on his way to an important interview so it flung itself at him until he was covered.
You laugh, but cat owners know it's true :p

16 is totally right once you ever own a cat, even years after the hair comes from nowhere!

So this is how we're gonna die. When cats invade us, we're gonna be asphyxiated by their human tracking hair.
Interesting.

Don't worry if you don't get the job. I feel this is not the right job for you.

I have OCPD (similar in many ways to OCD) also and if you get a good doc who can find the right combination of meds for you, you will be able to enjoy life, excel at work, and sit through just about anything without your obsessive thoughts controlling you and leaving you unable to focus.
I used to believe that psychotropic drugs/ antidepressants/ mood altering pills were the devil and I suffered for years in silence, but since I've been on medications life has been much easier and more fulfilling.
It's worth getting help especially since it will help you keep this job (if you get it), or get a job (if you don't).

A book called brain lock is also a good one. Has some cbt tools that ate quite effective.

Also, I don't have OCD myself but if I did, id imagine I'd be pretty pissed that someone was making fun of me like that.

53- Oh god, that is so far from a joke.
How about, "The Story of the Chicken Who Was the Butt of Everybody's Joke Because he Tried to Cross the Street"? That one always cracks me up!

3 was very funny. I seriously don't think he meant any offense. It was a well thought out joke. If you are offended, you need to chill.

Hey BMW guy, if you're going to be an insensitive grammar Nazi at a time like this, then you may want to proofread your profile, because you are AN ass, not a ass, but in this case arse is acceptable : )

So you're saying you have "CDO" because everything is in alphabetical order, so should every thing you type look like this 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'?

If it's not likely for someone to come to an interview with cat hair all over them I sincerely doubt it would be pussy hair.

You could have told him you're allergic to cat hair. That would've clued him in to get rid of the hairs himself before continuing the interview.

Yes, congrats to you, OP.
Really, some people are just so used to being covered in pet hair that they don't even notice it and are oblivious to the fact that others may have issues.
I think it's a good idea to tell that person that you have pet allergies and perhaps that will motivate him to at least brush himself off before going in to work.
While it isn't exactly true, most people are more sympathetic to allergies than they are to OCD (my sister-in-law also has severe OCD so I know how it is).
Good luck to you. Even if you don't get the job, you should be proud of the fact that you made it through the interview under those conditions.

If you are ok with eating cat hair..... You need to get rid of some of them ... Cat hair in food= not the norm ... *barf you are going to shit a hair ball
Reply
And I don't think 1-2 hair by meal Will actually do anything. It never did so far *shrug*We've Always had at least two cats in the House since I was born. I was practically raised by cats! (and normality is totally overrated)
