www.DaveBailey.me | Bryan's Interview

THERE WAS A MAN FROM INDIA WHO
WENT TO LIVE IN THE USA.

HE WAS A RESEARCHER AND
UNIVERSITY TEACHER.

HIS NAME WAS BRYAN GUPTA.

ONE DAY, HE WOKE UP IN A
HOTEL BED AT 7:40 A.M.

HE DIDN’T KNOW WHY HE WAS THERE
AND HIS HEAD WAS POUNDING.

AFTER A BIT, HE DID REMEMBER THAT HE
HAD AN IMPORTANT INTERVIEW THAT
DAY.

SO, HE GOT UP TO TAKE A SHOWER.

THEN HE GOT DRESSED AND HAD
A CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST
DOWN IN THE HOTEL CAFETERIA.

HE NOTICED THAT THE HOTEL
EMPLOYEES WERE LOOKING AT HIM
STRANGELY.

BUT HE IGNORED THEM.

AFTER BREAKFAST, BRYAN CAUGHT A
TAXI TO THE INTERVIEW.

WHEN HE ARRIVED AT THE BUILDING, HE
TOLD THE SECRETARY WHO HE WAS AND
WHY HE WAS THERE.

SHE LOOKED SURPRISED AND ASKED
HIM SEVERAL QUESTIONS.

SHE WANTED TO KNOW HOW TO SPELL
HIS NAME AND THEN WANTED HIM TO
CONFIRM HIS ADDRESS.

FINALLY, THE SECRETARY ASKED
HIM TO HAVE A SEAT WHILE SHE
MADE SOME CALLS.

A MAN ARRIVED AND BROKE SOME
TERRIBLY SHOCKING NEWS.

BRYAN HAD COME TO HIS INTERVIEW A
WEEK AFTER IT HAD BEEN SCHEDULED.

BUT WHAT WAS EVEN STRANGER WAS
THE FACT THAT THE MAN TOLD BRYAN
THAT HE HAD ALREADY COME IN FOR
THE INTERVIEW ONE WEEK EARLIER.

HE FELT VERY EMBARRASSED
OVER HIS BEHAVIOR.

WHY HAD HE FORGOTTEN ABOUT THE
PREVIOUS INTERVIEW?

AND WHY HAD HE FORGOTTEN ABOUT
EVERYTHING THAT HAD HAPPENED THE
PREVIOUS WEEK.

BRYAN ASKED HOW THE
INTERVIEW HAD GONE.

THE MAN TOLD HIM THAT IT HAD GONE
VERY WELL AND HE HAD EVEN BEEN HIRED.

BUT THEN BRYAN HAD NEVER
SHOWED UP AGAIN.

SOMEONE HAD TOLD THE COMPANY
THAT BRYAN HAD DIED.

BRYAN FELT LIKE HE WAS IN AN EPISODE
FROM THE BLACK MIRROR.

HE HAD THE STRANGEST
FEELING OF DEJA VU

THE MAN TOLD BRYAN THAT HE WAS
VERY SORRY, BUT SOMEONE ELSE HAD
BEEN HIRED FOR THE POSITION.

BRYAN WAS VERY SAD.

NOW HE WOULD HAVE TO FIND
ANOTHER JOB.
