I’ve had random people approach me telling me I’m pretty and beautiful or complimenting my outfits which makes me feel fantastic. Especially when the comments come from other women

I’ve done really hard things and came out better at the other end of it. I’ve learned I can adapt, be resilient, try new things, and push myself.

I’ve been way more social. Sometimes, idk if I’m doing social interactions right, but I had two people want to reconnect with me so I must be okay lol. I feel like I have more people around me.

I just feel more loose and more fun. I used to struggle heavy with depression (diagnosed) and feeling lonely. I struggled a lot in social situations and felt awkward and inept. I never felt ugly, but I never felt beautiful if you get what I mean. Anyways, I just wanted to share this somewhere ❤️ (posting on this sub too!)

So, I applied for two Lush positions in my city. I interviewed for one two weeks ago and applied for the second last week. The second one asked for my availability for an interview and so I was expecting an email from them. I didn’t think I did well enough on the first interview at the first location so I left not expecting a callback. I went to the second location and asked if they’d be hiring and they said a position was coming soon actually! I was super excited.

Then, I get an email to come in for an interview the next day. It was a time I said I was available so I say okay and head to the second location. I come in, tell them I have an interview, and they interview me. The interview went great, I had a lot of fun honestly. It wasn’t a group interview like I was expecting but I figured maybe the other person didn’t show up. I did a demo on an employee and some customers. Like deadass, I didn’t think anything was wrong.

Next day, I email them thanking them for the interview and I get a response basically saying wdym? You never showed up. 💀 I died a bit inside when I read that because all became clear to me 😭. I email them and just tell them I confused the dates and times and they offer me another date in more than a week, which I was lucky to get. But I’ll be surprised if I get the job lol.

The second location, y’all, I cannot believe I had the audacity to pull up and say “I’m here for the interview 😊”. WITH NO ACTUAL INTERVIEW. I emailed them apologizing too. I’m not sure they noticed I wasn’t meant to interview, but they would find out eventually when they actually emailed me about a date and time. Plus, that was an inconvenience since I wasn’t in their schedule. I was thinking of not saying anything but I figured I may as well be transparent. I even went in person, but I looked inside and the manager wasn’t there so I emailed instead. The interview went great I think otherwise, but I’m not sure I’ll get the job either 😭. I’ll see if they respond to my email or if I get a callback.

I feel so sad because I really wanted to work at Lush but I blew both chances in one go.

… anyway, lesson of the story, read your emails in depth, don’t skim 🙃.

I’ve seen mixed advice on wearing all black or something unique to stand out. I wouldn’t wear anything inappropriate. Wondering what people think. Also, any tips for the group interview would be great!

So I know the general places based off previous threads, but I will be supporting Latin American countries and African countries this time, so I’d like to know the best places to watch these teams. Or should I just go to an ethnic neighborhood and find a bar? Examples: Mexico, Haiti, Colombia, Brazil, Senegal, Ghana, etc

Also, is the city organizing anything?

I tried a sample bar that had a stronger spicy smell then bought a new one. But at home, I mainly get a play-dough scent. Is this normal, do I need to leave the bar out to mature or something? If I use it, will that bring out the smell

I got a sample and really like the smell
