you will be fine.

My ex used to throw up every time he got on a horse to show in the ring. then he would ride out with the blue ribbon.

You will get the job just like he got the blue ribbon

Just go in there and keep it real and they'll love you.

If they don't love you then fuckem.

...throw up either before or after the interview. Not during. If you throw up before, bring gum or breath mints.

You'll be fine. I said so.

Deeeeeeeeeeeeeep breath and GOOD LUCK!!!

It's the first day of work that you have to worry about.

I'll leave you with this quote from Crazy Cora: "Don't worry, on a new job it's quite common for things not to go well at first."
