rejection is my familiar friend

and i can see us having a long life together. oh how i cannot wait . . .

however today i was rejected so nicely it made me happy.

i went for an audition day with Benefit this morning and was running about 20 minutes late.

thank god for the miscommunication of the starting time, resulting in me being 10 minutes early.

after looking like a complete dick role playing "traffic stopping" i was sent down stairs onto the department floor to be a complete dick and harass the general public, force them into buying some over priced but pretty makeup.

after an hour of failure 'Rachel' from Benefit said: "Oh helen you deserve a break, lets go get your bag and you can go home"

i felt good.

it took a few seconds for me to realise what was going on. i was being rejected, told i wasn't good enough for Benefit.

my only ever face to face rejection was the nicest rejection i have ever received.

however the world can stop rejecting me from now on, it would be nice for something to go right. admittedly i am glad i didn't get the job, i at least now know i can't sell to people (i never thought i could anyway).
