My boyfriend had a career-altering job interview today. He was at home checking his email when he realized the interviewing company had sent him a COVID checklist sheet that he would need to print off and fill out before getting entry into the building. He had missed this attachment in the email.
We don’t have a printer, and he had just under an hour before his interview. It was early in the morning so it was hard to find a print shop that was open. Needless to say, he was very stressed and angry at himself. He said some not nice things while I was trying to be helpful. I called around and eventually found him a print shop that was open and he ran out the door.
I have no idea if he got everything on time or what happened. He has back-to-back interviews so I probably won’t hear from him for a few more hours. I am just sitting hear feeling terrible for him. What should I do when he comes home? What can I do to make him feel better? I am a little hurt by how he acted, but I understand the pressure he is under and I don’t want to make it about me. I would really appreciate some advice.
UPDATE: He got everything done and made his interview on time. He did great on his interview and was really happy, he took me out to lunch to apologize. Thank you everyone!
