A horrible day

dropdown I’d been looking for a new job for a while, as I really hated my present one. I didn’t get on very well with my boss and I found the job really boring, so it was definitely time for a change. I had seen an advert in the local paper for a job that sounded absolutely perfect for me. I had to have it! I spent a long time on my CV and wrote a really convincing covering letter. dropdown On the day of the interview I overslept!. I jumped out of bed, quickly put some clothes on and rushed out the door but I was never going to make it in time. If only I’d set my alarm, I would’ve been on time! I would normally take the bus but, as I was running late, I decided the tube might be quicker. I ran down the escalators and jumped onto the train, just as the doors were closing. dropdown After a couple of minutes I noticed that other people on the train were looking at me strangely. I looked down at my feet. I still had my slippers on! I must have been in such a rush to leave the house that I forgot to put my smart black shoes on. This was a disaster! dropdown I still really wanted the job so I decided to carry on. I got off the train and rushed outside. It had started to rain and I had forgotten my umbrella. Then I stood at the edge of the road waiting for a taxi when a huge truck drove past. I had been standing right next to a big puddle and I was now completely covered in dirty water! I couldn’t go to the interview looking like this. I decided to turn back and go home.Feeling very upset, I crossed the road to the tube station.
