I'm sorry the job got yanked from you OP. When one door closes, another opens. Hopefully something will come to you soon.

wow a, what a dick move. The same happened to me and I felt so humiliated. I supposedly started working at a Hong Kong style restaurant because they said they needed English speakers since all their employees were foreign exchange students from Asia. well 2 weeks later they hired someone else and didn't even tell me, they just stopped calling me -,-
