    Baby d000hg is still crying. On an Internet forum. Seeking attention. But no-one is listening. Diddums.

    Come on, d000hg, let Uncle Nomadd buy you a lollipop. There, isn't that better? Now, dry your eyes.

    EDIT: Will try Ice Cream or a new dummy if the lollipop doesn't work.

          Sorry I didn't reply to your amazing reply within minutes of you writing it.

          As I expected, you refuse to discuss the facts, preferring to get into personal attacks. I don't see any crying here.
          I'll take that as meaning you're unable to justify your 20 - year old methods which is unsurprising.
          You're decades out of date, dinosaurs really do walk the earth it seems. Nevermind "Uncle", I think "Grandad" is a better term - old, behind the times and set in their ways...

            Frustrating as it is, this happens more and more these days.

            Depending on the organisation / company, they may be going through a ghosting process of appears to put out to contract when they already have someone in mind. Certain industries / markets have to allow competition for certain roles, so they play the game at your expense. It’s one of the downfalls of running your own company / going for interviews. If you are a ltd or use an umbrella you could claim some of the lost fees back.

            It could be that the job vacancy disappeared due to budget changes? Maybe they didn’t want to lose face (annoyingly, this also happens).

            Or as someone mentioned they may have been intimidated. The guy running the interview sounded very unprofessional; maybe he was also incompetent and didn't fancy being usurped by someone who knows what they are doing.

            Could be a million possibilities but the bottom line is that you will have to allow for these loses, it’s the nature of the beast

                Aw, you ran out of 'clever' come-backs. Let's end it, since we're now firmly in the wrong forum, unless you actually want to share your decades of experience rather than boast about it in the midst of vacuous insults?
