I had a job
interview today! Now, my experience with them has not been stellar up to this
point. Okay, not that I've had many, but if there were a prize for most
applications handed out to unfriendly store people, I would win a prize... probably
something like a crumpled receipt written in gold pen.
However, in
contrast to my former attempts (like the time the interviewer didn't even look
at me the entire time, preferring to stare at some all-fascinating point over
my shoulder, or the time I offered my resume only to see the store person stuff
into a garbage can) this time seemed to go fairly well! No tripping or awkward
silences, and only minor babbling. (Really though, babbling is how I operate
all the time... so it's only to be expected.)
Plus, I
finally got to wear my new pencil skirt!
(Mirror photos forever!) I can be
fairly confident that, if they were hiring solely on appearance, I'd be a
shoo-in. At least I wasn't wearing something like this:
The store I
saw this in actually had it in all the colours of the rainbow! (Would you
rather look like a blue jellyfish or an orange one? Decisions, decisions.) Ah,
the joys of living in a small town. Just think: once I get a job, I could afford to buy ALL OF THEM! If only my school uniform was this glamourous.
What kinds
of frustrating job or shopping experiences have you had lately?
I hope you end up getting the job! I know that job interviews and applying for things can be such an awful experience.
