Today, I had my first job interview for eight months. My interviewer noticeably yawned during my reply to the first question. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had a job interview. As I walked in, I confidently shook the interviewer's hand, only to say, "I'm doing well, how are you?" before she'd even asked me how I was, or even said anything. The rest of the interview was pretty much a blur of awkwardness. FML
Today, I went to my first ever job interview, in a totally stressed out state. The employer's first question was: "What's your name?" I forgot. FML
Today, I had my first interview in over a year. I panicked and passed out. FML
Today, I went to a job interview. The person giving me my interview was late, and while waiting for them I fell asleep. When they arrived, they didn't even bother interviewing me because they thought I was irresponsible since I fell asleep because they were late. FML
Today, I had a job interview, for which I spent hours preparing. My interviewer was nothing more than a pimple-faced teen, and after only two minutes of reviewing my qualifications, he lost interest and started asking such questions as which Hogwarts house is my favorite. FML
Today, I had a job interview that I really wanted to nail. Everything was great until the interviewer asked me why I left my last job. I meant to say, "I felt it was time for a new challenge," but instead I said, "I felt tired of pretending to care." The look on their face was priceless. Needless to say, but I don't think I'll get the job. FML
Today, I had my first job interview in ages. I went in early, but instead of anyone telling me, they waited for the manager to come and get mad at me because it was supposed to be an online interview. I apologized and we went ahead with the interview, but she seemed disinterested and annoyed. I don’t think I got the job. FML
Today, I had a job interview. I thought it was going pretty well, until I got the hiccups. The interviewer immediately said, "Yeah, I think we’re done here," and sent me away. FML
Today, after months of unemployment, I got an interview. It went great until the recruiter asked if I had questions. Trying to sound thoughtful, I asked, "What do employees dislike most about working here?" The recruiter laughed and said, "That's a unique way to phrase that." I spent the rest of the interview wondering why my brain chose violence at the worst possible moment. FML
Today, during a job interview, I was asked to describe myself in three words. My mind went blank, so I panicked and blurted out, “Hungry, sleepy and… flexible?” The interviewer raised an eyebrow and said, “That's not the worst answer I've ever gotten but… come on.” I didn’t get the job. FML

I take it you won't be getting the job if it requires you to socialize with people.

A yawn is like a fart in a mitten. You don't like it, you don't know why it happend but as long as you release it with proper timeing it should go smoothly.

That was not a yawn it was an offer for oral. You rejected him of course you're not getting the job now. Go back and beg for a second chance

a yawn means you aren't getting enough oxygen to your brain so your body forces you to inhale deeply to get more oxygen in. it doesn't mean you are tired, bored, or whatever they portray on tv. this isn't a fml it's an uneducated "insult" to someone.

no, when a person is tired or sleepy, his brain is oxygen deficient that's why he tends to yawn.

your an idiot. everybody with a sense of common knowledge knows that. and when your tired, your brain is low on oxygen thus, you yawn.

And that obviously ment that he was instantaneously bored and wasn't going to give you the job. Not that he was tired, or even randomly yawned all by himself for no reason what so ever.
