I GOT A JOB!!!

#1 Postby weatherlover427 » Wed May 05, 2004 6:50 pm

It's almost too good to believe, but it's true! I, Joshua T. Young; have FINALLY landed myself a job!!! :) :) :D :D I am very happy right now!!

Here's how it happened (in case anyone cares):

I woke up at 10:15 am to the sound of my buzzing alarm, and laid there for a few minutes. Something told me to get up because this would be my day. (We all know who that was. :) ) So I did, took a shower, and got dressed. Then I got my folder and papers together and left, arriving right on time.

I did very well in the interview. The man who performed the interview was very nice and quite impressed by how well I did. His name was Kerry. (NOT the last name, his FIRST name :P ) He asked me some of the usual questions, such as in regards to former employment, schooling, etc. When he asked about my last job (the one I quit in lieu of termination); I got a bit apprehensive but tried my best to not let it show. I think he admired the fact that I was so blunt and honest about admitting the truth. :)

I had to do a drug test right after the interview (they said within 24 hours). So I went as soon as I left Sav-On. Once I finished that, I treated myself to lunch at Jack in the Box as a reward for a job well done. When I left, I forgot my folder. :oops: So I went back and got it.

That's how it went, basically. Praise, criticism, comments, suggestions, etc. welcomed! :)
