Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Is there anybody out there?
Today, I had a phone interview, my first job interview in months. Two seconds in, I not only lost my signal, my phone froze up and stopped working completely. For six hours. FML

Today, I got let go from my job, because my personal cell phone doesn't always have signal, so I missed an important call from work. My contract specifically said I'd get a work phone, which never happened. FML

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

Aced it
Today, my phone cut out during a call for a job interview. I tried calling them back, but there was no answer. Later, I got an email from the interviewer, saying I was no longer being considered for the position due to my being "rude and unprofessional." FML

Today, I finally got my phone and internet services reinstated after a billing mishap. During the week that I was without service, I had 3 requests for interviews and a position offer. None of those opportunities are still available. FML

Today, I got a missed call from a lady at an employment agency asking why I hadn't turned up to an information session for a potential job. Yesterday, the same lady told me the job position was canceled. FML

Today, after months of job searching, I finally got a call for an interview. Right in the middle of the call, my phone hung up so the music app could open. I tried calling them back and got no response. FML

Today, my hours got cut because I couldn't make it into work when they called me in. Why couldn't I make it in? I was in an interview for a better job. I didn't get the job. FML

Today, I had a job interview. I got there as quick as I could, having to travel two hours into a city I'd never been to. When I arrived, they told me I was turned down for being too late. They'd rescheduled the interview an hour earlier and I wasn't notified of the change. FML

Oh, the irony. Well, hopefully your interviewer will understand the situation. You can reschedule! Good luck!

Why would you want to work for them? I do understand a job is a job but I haven't heard good thing hence why I haven't applied. I did go nuts on their free data apology.

Wow dude that totally sucks. I really hope they give you another chance. But knowing telstra, they'll probably just say it's not their problem! Having said that, it effected heaps of people so fingers crossed for you OP

I'm pretty sure you can just reschedule it was out of your control. Maybe you can set up a fave to face interview instead. Best of luck. Hope you get the job

Would've been great if your carrier was Optus

Sounds like you didn't miss it, just that they couldn't hold it.
