Sainsbury job problems

Guys I’m actually so upset and beating myself over this. But basically I applied for a sainsbury online assistant job and they had replied within an hour for a job interview which is normal but the interview slots were all early early in the morning like 4am to 6am which raised flags to be honest. I ended up booking the one at 5:45 today since that seemed okay to me but I knew I would have a lot of trouble waking up and I would completely sleep through it. Also anytime I told someone my interview was at 5:45 they would be like omg that’s insane why would they ask you to go in so early. By the way luv you Sainsbury’s if you read this. But anyways I decided I was not going to go to sleep since I’m skilled at not going to sleep early but omg I could not keeep my eyes open around 3am I was so bloody tired and I only had an hour left till I had to get ready. But I decided that I would have a nap so I set numerous alarms to wake me up but they never did and I woke up at 9am. I literally shot out of bed and was like **** no way did I miss my first interview. I ACTUALLY started crying because if I got up instead of having a nap I could of had the interview. But anyways I called the number they provided and apologised and asked if there was anyway to get a reschedule. They told me they would ask the interviewer if he has any interview slots left but I have not heard back and I know for a fact they will not call back escpecially because I told them the reason I missed it was because I slept through. Anyways I emailed just now asking to reschedule and apologised so much so I’m hoping they will maybe email back even if they say no. It’s just a shame because this would of been my first job interview and I messed it up. But I have realised also that it is not the end of the world and I will find another job even though I don’t really need one right right now. I have applied to numerous other places and they usually take a week to respond tho but that’s okay I’ll wait. Anyways just wanted to know on a scale of one to ten how likely are they to let me reschedule an interview even if I don’t get the job.

I think your interview has been decided. They will look at it from the perspective that if you can't arrive on time for an important interview what will your time keeping be like for any ordinary day to day job role? (when others can manage to do that) Actions speak louder than words. I would be surprised if you hear from them again.
