Context: When I interviewed for the job I have now, I didn't hear back from them with a solid response for a month.  I kept having to check with them to make sure I hadn't been forgotten.
Speaker 1: When I interviewed for the job I have now, they didn't give me a solid answer for like a month after the interview.
Speaker 2: That's a long time to kind of hang in limbo. I am sorry you had to endure that for a month.
Speaker 1: It worked out ok, but I had to keep bugging them to make sure they hadn't given up on me.
Speaker 2: Well, at least that story had a happy ending. It could have went much worse.
