There's always something. I know I've lost out in job interviews because the interviewer assumed I was very nervous or somehow impaired. Why? I have a genetic glitch called an Intentional Tremor, which means, when my hands are at rest, they tremble visibly, but when I do something with them (hence the 'Intentional'), the tremor stops. It doesn't impede my functionality in any way, and no one who knows me even notices it after a few meetings.

But how do I deal with it at interviews and the like? Hardly anbody's ever heard of it, so to mention it means a longwinded explanation, and that would sound pretty weird to begin with. I even had a policeman, looking for info on a theft that happened at a party I attended, tell his next interviewee that 'Bee seemed very nervous about something'. Fortunately, the friend was able to tell him I always shake like that.

But good luck, Mrs. Duck! Your day will come!

I've tried having a pen in my hand to fiddle with, but that can look nervous as well. I've given up on finding a solution, just hope the interviewers don't notice.
