Fucking Interviewers.

None here. I applied for a position as a CSR/Sales Rep once and was told I'd be selling kirby vacuums.
I left.

I encountered the world's most bitchy and whorish interviewer ever. Jackie Shears. I sat down, in her dingy suicidal office and she started asking me general questions and being very pleasant. Then she got out my CV and took one look at my grades and my previous experience and changed completely. I acheived straight A's at GCSE and straight B's at A-Level (the equivalent of Rating: 5

There's a simple way to make yourself feel better in this situation. If you work on a production line it's pretty easy to find a way of bringing the machine to a halt. If the machine stops everything stops. When that happens make sure to stand around with your hands in your pockets looking as dumb as you can. It irritates the fuck out of people. This is a point scored in your favour. When you are told something and asked if you understand say "I think so" then repeat back what you've just been told, but with one or two slight alterations. Again, this will irritate the fuck out of the person in charge, another point to you. Make sure you are on time for work, and never leave early, don't give them an excuse to sack you. The idea is to make them wish they'd never employed you. When asked to do overtime tell them you can't be certain but you are almost 100% sure it won't be a problem. Tell them the day before that you couldn't do it after all. This will normally mean bringing in someone from an agency at high cost, again, a point to you. During mealbreaks talk often and volubly about your plans for the future. people in these kind of shitty jobs resent anyone having ideas. If you do it right you can normally get yourself so hated you'll be left alone. This is what you want, you have sabotage to carry out, it's best if no one is watching. When people discuss TV shows pretend you don't have a TV. That will mark you as an intellectual, also resented. Most of all, keep your head high and don't let it get you down.

Good luck

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA man you are kick ass!!!! Seriously guys, MaryjaneInTheCloset, nochowderforyou and Ignatius yu guys have cheered me up.

I actually got a month long "trial period" in which I intend to be a model employee, then when that bitch comes back to me grovelling for my services ill tell her, incredibly politely, to stick it up her ass. Im on a gao year and I want to get enough money so I dont have to work for a month and then ill get a cooler job.

Hey, Cassiopiea. I'm getting to this story late in the American day because I'm at school all day these days. I loved that story! What a slag indeed. I can't believe how appalllingly rude she was. Glad you got the four-week paid gig.

Cassiopiea, what's Pick N Mix? I've been to England a lot. Even lived there briefly. But I don't know Pick N Mix. It sounds like a snack food. Which means I need to know about it. Badly.

haha! That cracked me up coupled with Cassiopiea's story.

The only interview story I have is that I was getting this shitty job at Hardee's (Carl Jr's for those of you around the states) and one of the questions he asked me was if I drove and could always be at work on time. I said, yeah, I drove and that I could always be at work on time.

Well, when my friend came and picked me up, haha, his Blazer died in the parking lot and the dude came out and asked me what was going on. I said, "Oh, my friend just broke my car! Not a big deal! I'll still be able to get to work on time, I promise!"

I got the job, found out the dude was a total stoner and he already knew that I didn't have a license before he even called me in for the interview because I'm well known around my town, I guess?

It was pretty cool, though, going outside to smoke a joint of some dro with this dude the second day I worked. =)

one reason people for jobs like that dont like getting people with good grades is because its harder to keep them run down and willing to stay in a job like that.

Went through an hour of waiting and about a 45 minute interview at Kroger just to have the lady say *im sorry we are looking for someone a bit older*

They enjoy trying to run up walls and falling on their asses.

Don't worry about that, man. The only reason why they want someone a bit more older isn't just about maturity issues, I'm sure. Even if you hold yourself better than the rest of the guys, sometimes it has to do with child labor laws. Even if that isn't the case, I've found it's always hard for younger people to get a job. I was 15 when I got my first job at McDonald's, but the only way I got it was that I

A) had to lie about my age
B) my best friend's mom was a manager, so she smoothed it over a bit for me.

OH MY GOD!!!!!!


Pick N' Mix is the greatest sweet known to man, You have loads of different buckets of sweets to choose from, from gummy worms to fizzy cola bottles and from bits of honeycomb to white mice and chocolate raisins, and for three pounds from my ocal Woolworths or choices (a video rental place) you can fill up a cup about the size of a large mcDonalds cup with as many sweets as you want. Some sucky plaes charge you extortionate amounts based on weight but they can lick my rim.
