The Job Thread!

[Schimid]

Funny thing happened to me tonight.

I was working tonight and got two "job" offers. Sort of.

The first one came from a guy who came in and wanted a pillow. He asked me what my major was, and I just talked with him politely. After a while, he picked up that I was going into media, film, television, acting, whatever, and the guy said that his sister works in the movie business and took down my name and number, and he said she'd give me a call if anything came up. I doubt this will happen.

The second came from a big guy, about 6'6 who talked to me about the slot machine in the store. We made jokes about it, and about some of the other useless but life-enhancing products, and eventually he asked me if I was in school, if I was ambitious, yadda yadda. Then he asked if I was good in leadership positions. I said yes.

He gave me a business card and said he would call me. He is the CEO/President of a business (i don't know what exactly) and told me to call him if he doesn't call me before the week is over.

Chojin, I actually got in big trouble today for being consistently late. Some of it is really my fault (forgetting the renaissance faire was still in town and getting stuck in horrible traffic) but some is just unavoidable circumstance when it comes to leaving school at 1 and having to be at work at 2. Plus to be a salesman like that, I get the impression I'd have to be either extremely sleazy or extremely charismatic, neither of which I actually am :=
