Fortune Cookies - I'm a believer

I had a job interview this morning and came out of it feeling really good about it and pleased with my performance.

I found out this afternoon that I have got it, thing is that I already knew.

How did I know? Well, a fortune cookie told me:

"You will shortly receive a cheerful message or letter"

Congrats! I got an offer letter for a new job today too. I also knew about it in advance. How did I know? They told me before they sent the letter.

Yeah, but you've just posted this and got a couple of cheerful replies, so it could have been those it was referring to...!

Hmm.....

Hadn't thought of that.....

I haven't had a confirmation letter yet so the message could have meant that the letter was in the post and that I would get cheerful messages here

Re: Fortune Cookies - I'm a believer

Personally I look for the hidden meanings in fortune cookies...

For instance:

"Your financial worries will soon be over" actually means "you're about to die"
