I have a job interview tomorrow morning and there is one, small problem. I am sick! I don't know if it is a cold or allergies/sinuses. My throat is all scratchy and when I talk I sound like a boy. I also have the never-ending sniffles. HELP! I NEED a job and don't want to turn them off by my being sick! Any quick, over night home remedies? Or even something I can do tomorrow morning that will make me seem not as sick as I really am during the interview?

Awww... that sucks. I've been job hunting lately too and I know how it feels to want everthing perfect for that interview.
I'm sure what will make it all better. It depends on how sick you really are. Take lots of vitamin C, down some Nyquil and sleep as much as you can between then and now. You might be doing better tomorrow.
Anyway, good luck. Hope it works out for you!!

Yes, take lots of Vitamin C and drink lots of water. Get plenty of rest and take some Nyquil before you go to bed tonight. When you get up tomorrow, take some more Vitamin C and take some Dayquil, you will feel a lot better.

Yes, APhi already said to do most of these things

I was just kind of telling you what I would do, makes you feel like a million bucks.

Thanks everyone. I just got in from my evening job and am going to go and buy some Vitamin C and Nyquil right now, then hit the hay.

I wouldn't worry about it. I was sick at one of my college interviews and I just explained my situation to the woman interviewing me and she was very sympathetic and understanding. When I got my acceptance letter a few months later, she included a hand written note saying she enjoyed meeting me and hoped I was feeling better. We are all humans and we all get sick at one point or another.

Thanks for the advice everyone!! I did feel A WHOLE LOTE better this morning!! Unfortunately, I am still sick but didn't feel it this morning at the interview. Only thing was my voice was a little rash, but I just asked the interviewer to excuse me, due to an illness. I have my second interview tomorrow!
