I didn't get the job.

I just want to fucking disappear, I'm so fucking tired. I just want a chance.

That sucks! The way you speak about Mickey and pets in general, I can't think of anyone better suited for the role. What more could they possibly want?! I know it might not help much to hear this now, but please keep trying and don't give up.

When you get the gig you'll be great at it.

Your chance will come, lovely. It will. And when it does you are going to be incredible at it.

You can hide away and lick your wounds for a day or two but we're not going to let you wallow. โค๏ธ

I'm so sorry, that's so awful. Did they give you any feedback? We are all still cheering for you!! This one wasn't for you, but there's still a whole lot out there!!

Just that it was a really hard decision, and she struggled a lot with deciding. Idk if that makes me feel better or worse, that I was so close

Thank you ๐Ÿ’œ I appreciate that so much ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ
