Keep working at it It's perfectly well within the company's rights to choose a candidate that they feel is better, regardless of whether they left prior or not. I know it sucks to hear this, because you are really close to it and it happened to you. And you feel like you haven't gotten a fair shake and that you've been working hard at your nervousness. But if they really felt that way, and that this person was a better candidate in speaking with people and not being nervous, then it really is just something that you'll have to work on. I was in a similar situation in the sense that I had been hard working at a job, thought that I was going to get the promotion, interviewed for it, and rather then them hiring me, they hired someone from another store, who then had to be my boss. What did I do? I became dejected, I was unmotivated, and I didn't handle myself well to upper management. And it hurt my reputation for a while. When I look back on it, I realize that I was being immature and unable to accept rejection. I was unable to continue being motivated and working hard for the next opportunity, and it showed. You will be doing the same thing if you call out for the rest of the week. Take the defeat and try to better yourself from it. Don't leave just to try to spite them. I know it sucks to hear, but there will be other opportunities out there in the future (whether with this job or another), and now's your chance to continue trying to better yourself and strengthen your confidence. --- http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111123223446/simpsons/images/9/99/K.png I didn't even give you my coat! ...
