Finding a job is hard, but knowing when the job isn't right for you when you're worried is even harder. I have an interview for something I KNOW is not right for me, how do I get out of it?

Miscommunication
So frustrated. I have been preparing for an interview for a job that I thought sounded quite interesting since a very last minute call yesterday saying they would like to speak to me this morning. At 10am they called (a full hour early), luckily they were accepting when I said that I wasn't expecting their [...]
What a difference a week makes
Today was a good day. I don't just mean good because the week has been crap (though it has), or good because I didn't cry (though it was), I mean good because I met a fear head-on and didn't freak out like I often tend to when faced with it unexpectedly. Today I had my [...]
It’s been 10 days…
10 days ago I got told that my role was no longer necessary but that they were going to take it under advisement and look into it. Last Wednesday I got told officially that I would no longer be required and then the panic set in. Last Friday I interviewed for a job I wasn't [...]
Self-sabotage mk II
Well, last week I got called back for the second interview on the job that I'd interviewed for on Tuesday. Unfortunately, after the interview, I started having LOADS of doubts about the job; did I really want to move on now? was it really the right job? did I want to do it at all? [...]

Work and things
Job hunting in the current climate sucks; that I am doing it because I need to insert some positive changes in my life makes me sometimes question the levels of my sanity - even though my psychiatrist has already said that I am as good as I am going to get so I shouldn't expect [...]
I’m a What now?
Apparently the internet went insane (or at least the part of it where I post my fanfic did). I have been posting a story that I am struggling to write (which makes me believe it's rather good) and yesterday someone who had found it through a post made on someone else's site (it's again not [...]
Shattered
Don't know what is wrong with me, but right now I am absolutely exhausted. Even ended up skipping ballroom this evening because I was so tired that all I wanted to do was sit on my sofa and drift in and out of consciousness...so bloody tired.
Bureaucratic Nitwits
Yesterday afternoon I had the pleasure of spending nearly 3 hours on the phone with people who I would never approach in a pub. I received a letter rejecting my claim for benefits and, furious obviously, I called (as it suggested in the letter) to appeal the decision and find out why it had been [...]
