Job update

Post by HappyPants1029 »

As some of you guys might remember I was talking about this job i'm trying to get so I can pay for my bike. Well I had the interview today and I think it went okay. The business is run by a married couple and they both interviewed me together and I gotta say I reckon the guy likes me, laughed at all my jokes, but not too sure about the lady she smiled a lot but I dunno she gives off this "my husband is gonna try and call you back but I'm gonna keep saying small sinister remarks which make him not" vibe. Anyway I was horribly nervous and kept stuffing up so I somehow ended up covering up with "sorry if I'm a bit off today I've had a really bad flu and the doc gave me some antibiotics which are making me a bit fuzzy" or something like that... it started a bit shaky but we got talking and I think it went pretty well. They said I was one of the 6 they interviewed and they'll pick 3 out of them and call them back for a second interview. I'll keep you boys posted, wish me luck (hope they call me)

Be careful A lot of the sales jobs that are Commission only are a con.
Remember, half the people you know are below average.

Yeah agreed but this is a legitimate company and I know what questions to ask but the average salary is good so I could have a bike in a couple of weeks
