bertusgeert 1 #1 June 21, 2004 Just returned from an "interview". I got the job starting saturday. I had a job selling phones, then left that because of ethics reasons. It was very high pressure sales. That was start of May. I like sales, but def. not the high pressure and never being good enough. After visiting with my family who were here for a month (with my first niece), back togethter for the first time in three years - coming from kentucky, toronto and australia. So then I sat around on my ass for another month, working in my parent's garden every now and then, mostly sitting on the net and playing some g-tar. My dad got pissed and said - YOU NEED TO GET A JOB! I had already aplied everywhere I thought would be good jobs, and didnt want anything else - being picky. I was sick of a crappy jobs. (but that is probably why they pay you). So Saturday Canoe Kentucky called me, and said - we have a job for you. I went there this morning, and the "interview" was basically my new boss describing to me what my new job would be. So now I will be an outdoor store sales rep. It's a family business - and she spent quite a while telling me they don't encourage high pressure sales. Thats Awesome! So hopefully I'll be really happy there, get some more money and have some good times! Who wants a KAYAK?! The river is right behind the store, and I can just swim or boat anytime. I hope this job is as kickass as I think it will be! (there is also a bouldering wall in the basement!) So thanks all for helping me with my interview techniques, but I didnt need it! --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

Brains 2 #2 June 21, 2004 Congrats on the job. If you come across any used creek boats, i am in the market. I have a play boat now and want a larger boat for bigger water and for taking friends along (so they have something to paddle also.) here is my current boat. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder how many people enjoy that kind of thing. QuoteI went there this morning, and the "interview" was basically my new boss describing to me what my new job would be. For some reason that's a great feeling, especially if they keep tripping over "when you start..." and "if we agree on a job offer..." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
