Oh god Scrappy, all my sympathies! That's my nightmare, too. Here's hoping they get that it's not typical of you...

I guess this is "Frank gets nibbled to death by ducks day" here at work. Every time I get a head of steam going on something, somebody interrupts me with a piddling little request, irrelevancy or question, and it is getting. On. My. Last. Nerve.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

So, they rescheduled and were nice about it. I THINK the interview went well, but I know being wrong about the time would be a big black mark against a candidate in my book.Just gotta wait and see. I really want this job.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

With any luck your interviewer was tied up in traffic or a meeting or a crisis and the overwhelming sense of relief they felt upon postponement will work in your favor.

The owner said that he is late to everything and he understood the mix-up.

You ARE in California...

I wish I could remember who said it... something along the lines of only in California is "I flaked" a valid answer to "What the hell happened to you?!?!?"

I hope things work out with the rescheduled interview, Scrappy.

Frankenbuddha, I hope your day has improved.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, good luck, Scrappy. Can you reiterate how unlike you this is in a followup note?

There, see! Of course you're a rockstar of an applicant.
