ok so for those who don't know, i just recently started a new job after a ridiculously long haitus. and i literally just started but apparently i've already messed up.
long story short, soon after i joined, they had me involved in the interviewing process. and because of my short tenure there, i guess it was assumed i wouldn't have much to contribute to the interview and thus given a short window (10 min). that's not enough time interview and thus I wasn't given enough time to get a gauge on him yet. so when i was asked yay or nay, i couldn't give an answer and had to ask for more time.
Unbeknownst to me they all already like him. and were curious why i hadn't said yes or no yet. ding #1
Ding #2 i was given the task of coming up with test questions and given job descriptions to review as a base. in reviewing them, i thought of some changes to them and asked if i can. i didn't have access and was told no problem later.
well the next day, i heard that was a bad move since that's not my technical expertise. wtf did they give me this task anyhow?
i found this all out when i got to work yesterday, someone pulled me aside and said "look i'm telling this to you as a friend. you need to take it down by a LOT. you need to be the pretty girl that everyone wants to date and not the ugly girl that no one wants to date. you're basically like a chihuaha right now". i felt so bad i just wanted to head to a bar during lunch and just drink instead of eat. i was pretty much sullen and glum for the rest of the day.
my boss noticed this and asked that person who gave me the shyt news and asked what happened. she just told him "oh she is fine.. don't worry".
i just ate junk food yesterday. gained 2 lbs of water weight and now going back to work.
