i have a friend, and we are friend since last 2008 in my previous work,we are always together when we apply for a job, and now that we decided to go back in our previous work so we applied, actually they need two but the they will hire the one for this month and hire the another after 2 months, they contacted my friend as the first hired and they contacted me after two months to be their employee too. i just feel a bit of anger and happy, because they dont hired us on the same time, and i am happy because my friend can start to work now while me should wait for 2 months. what will you feel if this situation will happen to you? will you feel angry to your friend?or happy,or just ignore it?

It is quite sad when anyone is made to wait a long period of time before start employment so I suppose I too would be angry. But there after hired it would be exciting to have a friend with whom to share daily experiences with.

Just ignore it. We must respect the policy. You will b happy soon after 2 months of waiting so keep all the positive sides my friend.

I think that you should be happy for your friend. It's not his fault if he got hired first. I think that what matters most is that you both got hired. And if he's your real friend then the two months' time of his seniority won't affect you guys.

Now, if you guys are good friend what is there to feel but happy for the other person. For whatever reason the employer decided to go with your friend first. It is not your friends fault for how things turned out right?

At least you got the job. So that's something to be celebrated on. Now since you still have a new a month of two to spare then might as well enjoy yourself.

I think it is not up to you to decide who should get hire first or not. Your friend has the right to get a job too, and he/she might need the money for the moment. So, why not let it go, and since you are already hired on this job, ignore it. At least, both of you work together now, right?

I would still be very happy to my friend and myself. Although I was hired 2 months later, it is still great because that means we are both hired. The only difference is the 2 months. I won't envy my friend because that is the policy of the company. It would be more hurting a little only if my friend is hired and I am not.

Hi Asliah I would feel just like you. I have a Church friend and he is by times more active than I am. So he has a little bit more friends than I. And I see him as he is "more loved than me". It´s so human to feel a little bit anger. But we have a Brain (that animals don´t have) and we can work on this negative feeling. We must support our friends, and be patience and work hard to devolpe ourselves fine to be happy. Blessings!... Dainy

A pleasant day to you Asliah, With reference to your query, for me, it is fine. It does not really matter, if my friend will be hired first rather than me. What important is, my friend and I will be both having a job.

Hello asliah, This is interesting, well if I am in such a situation, then for sure, I'll ignore the case because, there is equal amount of happiness for myself and equal amount of anger on the company because they din't want to just now! But, then, here there is no need to be angry at my friend at all! Thats basically because, she is not the one who is hiring! And there is nothing that she could to stop you from being hired. Its all just her good times, that she got it soon and your good time that you can start up after 2 months and be relaxed just now! Just be happy for your friend and hope to join her soon and hope that the 2 months pass on very soon! Cheers! Good day! :)
