So I went for my "interview" today. It was the strangest interview experience of my life! First of all, when I smiled at the interviewer, she said "Wow! You have a great smile! I want to hire you right now!" (I kinda thought she wanted a date!) She asked me why I wanted to work for the company, I gave my answer, and she asked me no more questions. I guess I gave the right answer because she moved me straight into the testing phase!
I was sat down at a telephone and told the test would take about 20 minutes. I was told it was an honesty and integrity test. Here is a sample question: If you were to walk up to a vending machine to purchase a soda, the machine malfunctioned and you got it for free, would you still insert the money into the machine? Heck no! You know how much money I have lost in those machines over the years? I couldn't say that though.... Press 1 for yes, or 2 for no. Facinating!
After completing the 20 minute exam of conscience, I sat nervously by while my new girlfriend called back to check my scores. I guess I passed because I was then moved on to the computer testing phase.
I was sat down to a computer and had to complete a 50 question exam to ensure I can count and read. Once I completed the exam, my GF came by to see my scores. Once again, I passed (I guess) and was told there would be a criminal check done on me. So now I wait while they find out that I have no criminal record. Then my new GF will call me and stick a q-tip in my mouth for a drug test. (Is that when she is going to hit on me?) I will certainly pass that test too.....then I will have a decision to make....
I found out that the $2 extra is only if I work full time....otherwise, my salary would be the same as it is now.

The Closet Can't Hold Him Anymore...
John Travolta is claustrophobic. He couldn't stay in the closet any longer!
I especially love the headline. Hehehe... headline.

They called!
I have an interview scheduled for tomorrow! Oh man! That's awesome! It really comes at a great time as today was a really crappy day at work. My boss was stressed out and took the last day and 1/2 off. Because she is a micro-manager, we had a pile up of things she had to check off before we could process them to the sales floor. I don't know if this makes sense, but she had the audacity to come in today and bitch about us taking too long processing things into the computer system. I told her that everything was indeed processed and waiting for her approval. That shut her up, but we were all pretty pissed. I like working with the customers, but everyone is always so stressed out at this shop. It isn't fun. Like I have said before, I don't hate it.....I tolerate it. For $2 more an hour, 20 miles a day less driving, and less stress..........I hope I get this other job! Wish me luck and say a little prayer.
Love you!
Love you!

I need pimping!
Dude! This blog needs pimping in a big way! BTW, don't be surpised if Tony starts posting here. I guess that is one of the bennies to this blogger. I could add you all and it could just be a bunch of family postings. Pretty cool, aye?
Get By With a Little Help...
Here I come to save the blog! Now you can read my madman ravings here as well as on my other blog, Sorry Attempts.
Now Monica and I just have to find something interesting to blog about...

I've started a new blog.
I can't take peer pressure. I just can't. Tony complained about my old blog, so I am starting a new one over here. I have actually had this one for awhile, but I didn't use it. I hope that I can add pictures and stuff, but for now I don't know how. I suck.
I went to my job today and had a hard time looking my boss in the eye knowing I put an application in elsewhere. Then I realized that this other place may never call me for an interview and I settled in. I am such a loyal person and I hate letting people down. I know that if I quit my job, my poor boss would be heartbroken. Trust me, there are only 5 of us that work there, so if I leave, it's a pretty big deal. Then she went out and bought us all lunch from the local gourmet market. How can I let this poor woman down?
Anyhow, I am off to fiddle with the blog.
Love you guys!
