Love Bites

Oh dear it seems I have a bit of a predicament. You see, I seem to have obtained roughly three or so "love bites" (or hickies as they're also called) on my throat from my significant other. That aside, I need them to disappear as quickly as possibly, preferably by tomorrow seeing as I have a job interview and it would be dreadfully embarrassing to show up with these horrid dark splotches on my neck.
But yes, getting to my real inquiry here; what should I do reduce the redness in time for my interview.

(Note: I got the marks yesterday evening so they're still fairly new.)
 
Re: Love Bites

Um, I hear makeup makes things invisible (and yes, I know you dont normally put it on your neck, but it's worth a try.)

If all else fails, go to the interview wearing a scarf. You might look stupid, but they will be covered up at least.

I remember in year 4, (when you're about 8, for those who aren't in the British educative system) an assistant teacher came in with a high collar jumpery thing on, and whenever she bent over to help someone everyone could see a lovebite on her neck. Some people laughed, some people thought there was a vampire loose. :rolleyes:

Rub some ice on them.

That is 2nd grade for us. Don't wear a scarf to an interview, you will look stupid and they won't hire you.
 
Re: Love Bites

^That's why I said you'll look stupid.

And how does the system work over there?
 
Re: Love Bites

Yes, I thought the scarf would be a bit drastic. For now I've got a good deal of cover-up on my neck and I've decided to give my boyfriend a good lashing next time I see him.

I iced my neck last night, and it faded them very slightly. I'm too pale for this sort of thing, it looks like a toddler colored on my throat with a purple Sharpie marker. I tried toothpaste too, it didn't do much.
 
Re: Love Bites

They only hire you if you look and seem smart enough for the job. So, unless those people are complete retards, you will get dropped the moment you walk in.
 
Re: Love Bites

Don't you dare insult my intelligence, prick. Considering you don't know me, nor the type of job I'm being interviewed for, you really have no right at all to make judgments like that.
All I wanted was some advice I hadn't heard before, don't assume I'm a floozy moron for no reason. Really now. ><
 
Re: Love Bites

I think he meant by how you look, i.e the love bites.

But yeah, good luck, I hope you get the job regardless of what you do. If they were any good they'd hire you anyway for your intelligance :P
 
Re: Love Bites

you could put a brace on your neck and say you were in a car accident. or put on dozens of tight necklaces.

or you could just treat is as a badge of honnor. thats what i would do.

and now seriousness.

really it shouldnt affect the interview. just keep iceing it to make it go away as much as possible, then mabey touch it up with some makeup. then forget about it, "you wouldnt worry about what people think of you, if you knew how seldom they did." its unlikely they will notice, and even more unlikely that they would care.

if you do get hired, you may get a little bit of crap for it, but the joke will eventually go away.
 
Re: Love Bites

If toothpaste and icecubes didn't do much, then I'm not sure what else you can do. :(
 
Re: Love Bites

You could call them and ask them to move your interview to a different day.
 
Re: Love Bites

Although, that neck brace idea isn't half bad. :thumbsup:
 
Re: Love Bites

Thank you Urahara, I appreciate the compliment. But yes, I'm in a horribly bitter mood at the moment, I apologize for lashing out at you, Dragon-man.
Ugh, this is just an awkward situation seeing as I've been looking for a job forever and now I finally have my chance!

I wish I had a neck brace, but that would be fun to explain too. "Oh I got in a car accident...but I don't drive. Damn it!"
 
Re: Love Bites

you could replicate the spots all over your face and arms and if they dont hire you, you could sue them for being racist agains "polka-dot people".

thats so stupid, it just might work! this idea gets the griffin seal of aproval. unfortunatly, the seal is a real seal and cant leave the ocean. but still, the idea earns the seal of aproval. and the seal of aproval aproves of the idea.
 
Re: Love Bites

^Failing that, you could just do nothing and if they ask anything about it, just admit you have a better sex/social life than them :P
 
Re: Love Bites

Haha, this is true. I could probably cover them up sufficiently for tomorrow. The fun part is that I also get to go to church tomorrow...I could just imagine all the dirty looks I'd be getting from the old, decrepit women around there. xD
 
Re: Love Bites

Good luck with it then :thumbsup:

I did not call anyone stupid. I do not know how you got that but, I meant if you walk in with a scarf on, you will be dropped the moment you walk in. Unless, of course, if your employers are complete retards.
 
Re: Love Bites

When I first read the title, I thought it was someone stating that Love bites, as in it sucks.

I guess it was quite the opposite.:lol:
