Things that make you SAD thread.

When you turn on the news and it's all bad shit. Does nothing nice ever happen anymore that's worth reporting on.

Yep but that doesnt get views or interest.

Yep but that doesnt get views or interest.

And that's also sad, that most are not interested in good things that happen.

At 10:24 today it will be 30 years since my dad Pat passed away, aged just 68. Always gets me a little, 2 days before St Patrick's Day but there's always the memories living strong in my mind

Allegations that Cesar Chavez abused women and teenage girls. He is/was a hero across the south-west for organising spanish speaking farm workers and creating the UFW. Several cities have main roads named after him and hold annual marches in his honour. Or at least they did hold marches - mostly canceled this year.

2026 is not going to be a banner year for me.

Keep your head up mate, from the sound of it you did brilliantly to get as far as you did. Sounded seriously competitive!

Appreciated, mate, truly.

It is good to remind myself that this is the sort of thing where an A gets beaten by an A+, and that doesn’t turn my A into an F.

Or even a case where an employer has to chose between several A+ candidates.

Lycan is bang on.
From your posts, you did your absolute best to highlight your talents. You are proud of how you presented yourself.
You'll be stellar in other selections & will get a great role soon, with an employer fortunate to have you.

It's their loss.

Fuck mate, that's wank. Maybe it was your face?

Keep your chin up, take it as really good practice and the right thing will come along

Like @Tony Towner, they took one look at my hair and said "nope, serial killer, 100%".

Do you / can you get any feedback why it didn't go as well as it might have done?

I have sent an email asking for something more specific. Did that as soon as I found read the rejection.

No reply as yet. Which is enormously disappointing tbqfh.

Working far far too hard and making myself ill again (not on purpose, but I have been).

Come on Danny Boy, look after yourself. This mob need someone to tell them who scored against Peterborough in 1994.

Had a call at 10 is last night telling me one of my stepdaughters had been hit by a car.
Turns out she was on a night out in Derby, and was caught up in the hit and run there.
Mrs jelly is in bits, as are the rest of the family.
She's out of immediate danger, but she took the brunt of the hit & has the worst injuries, including spinal damage which needs further mri scans and so on.

 

[EpsomWolf]

Good Lord. I was just reading about that on the news.

Truly shocking. Awful for you all. Very best wishes to you all LJ

 

[Lupo]

Sorry to hear that LJ, truly awful. Hope your stepdaughter makes a full and speedy recovery

 

[leedswolf]

That's terrible. Let's hope she makes a full and speedy recovery.

God sorry mate, hope she's ok. My other half was fortunate and missed it by minutes as she was in Derby centre too last night
