Gotta have a fiddle in the band
Ah! Apparently I dazzled Family Video well enough to get called back. The problem with my trying to get a job is that usually somewhere during the application process I realize that I absolutely do not want the job. This is what happened at Shawnee North (though, it turned out, they did want to hire me). It’s also what happened at Michael’s (even though I love Michael’s I wouldn’t want to work there cos it would taint something I enejoy). Basically, it’s what happens everywhere. So most of my jobs are the result of my mom getting pissed and calling people to see if they’ve considered my application. She’s a hero, that one. I’m so spoiled with jobs like the Cap-J and the History Dept. and the Leadership Institute because I have so little work to do and I like the people I’m around… and whee all those things are great. So I only want a job if I think I’ll like doing it. And that never ever ever happens. Until today. Today, I went for the open interviews at the family video and when I got there I was like “yay! MOVIES I LOVE MOVIES YAY!” and so I tried really hard during the interview. I even chose my “favorite movies” for the application based on different genres so I wouldn’t look like a low budget film snob. Lol.
I got called back by like 6:30 and they only stopped doing interviews at 6… so hopefully that means something good… and hopefully this works out well for me. I still have to take a skills test tomorrow which will take about an hour apparently… which seems ridiculous. So anyway, I’m excited. And I hope the process keeps going well… cos the odds that I’ll find another job which I want are slim to none.
