Got a second job interview~ just one more step to take

Congratulations! Take the last step - tweak yourself during your interview, tell the interviewer there's more where that came from.

don't do that.

haha xD I honestly have no idea what to do! My eldest sister told me to expect questions about my personality.

Jules · October 24, 2012, 10:25:51 AM

GOOD LUCK!

OH MI GOD, the cat stole my arm!!!
Lulwut?

The cat jumped onto my bed and I started petting her, she just kinda dropped her entire body on my wrist so I couldn't move...

Acolyte · October 24, 2012, 07:37:32 PM

My cat does that all the time when I'm trying to sleep. Alternatively, he'll try to sleep on my head.

Little Psycho · October 24, 2012, 08:10:54 PM

Nah, my cat just lies between my legs so that "she can haves all blanket and I gets to haves none"!!
She literally pushes my legs from under the sheets...

Or, she'll place herself in the middle of my bed just so that I have just 10cm of space left, or something like that $:-\$

yuyu! · October 24, 2012, 11:03:13 PM

My cat lays on my head, too, when she wants attention.

Also...I got the job!!!

Jules · October 25, 2012, 12:55:17 AM

YAY!

yuyu! · October 25, 2012, 01:07:51 AM

Thanks!! xD

Congrats yuyu!

Acolyte · October 25, 2012, 02:04:29 AM

Congratulatory dinosaur party!

yuyu! · October 25, 2012, 02:10:46 AM

xD!!! awww, you guys are too kind!!!

I'm pretty excited, but a little nervous, too. ^^; Customer Service sounds like a tough job for the emotionally meek, like me.

But I like dealing with people, so...

SirJackRex · October 25, 2012, 06:56:01 AM

Congratulations yuyu!

Zylos · October 25, 2012, 10:21:55 PM

You'll be fine. I'm normally socially awkward most of the time but have a customer service job myself and am told that I'm one of the better workers there just by being nice and enthusiastic with the guests.

yuyu! · October 25, 2012, 11:36:55 PM

Thanks, everyone!!

Whew! I'm glad to hear you say that!

I'll just stay nice and positive and hope that I don't run into many really angry people!

At my old job, we didn't have a customer service counter, so cashiers kinda did both.

So, I may just have the experience I need anyways.~

Jules · October 25, 2012, 11:55:03 PM

Smile and be polite. Honest to god that is all a customer service rep does. Basically get used to eating.. well.. you know

You'll deal with angry people, and some really rude ones. Remember that even if they are raging at you it isn't you they're upset with. Never take it personally. You're gonna be great Yuyu, trust me

That makes me feel a lot better, too!!

Actually, the store itself seemed to be much more friendly than many of the others.

Everyone there was talking to me and being really cool and such~ I hope this place turns out really well!

It's a bit of a drive, but it's a really comfortable place~

yuyu! · October 27, 2012, 07:52:41 PM

Just did my orientation.

Was actually pretty neat, because the guy who handled it was super awesome.

(Everyone there seems to be awesome). The training videos were either really hilarious (no really) or really lame, to the point of being hilarious. The youthfulness of that store makes me happy, haha. I actually figured out that I'll be both a cashier and a customer service rep, it seems like they work me up to doing both, but I start as a cashier. ;o

The break room is nice (except everyone complains that the coloring is extremely tacky, but I don't care!

). Cool thing about an electronics store is the break room has this really gigantic flat-screened tv, with a leather sofa in front of it. Dear lord, at my last job, we had a little box tv with cable (I think) that barely worked. And cheap little plastic chairs. O_o

Jules · October 28, 2012, 02:40:50 PM

:jelly:

I don't even have a gigantic flat-screened TV at home

that's electronics stores for you...what show-offs! D:

Acolyte · October 28, 2012, 08:29:32 PM

John's sister has like a 60'' flatscreen. It takes up most of the wall. *_*

Jules · October 28, 2012, 11:27:42 PM

Oh sure, RUB IT IN WON'T YOU

SirJackRex · October 29, 2012, 02:23:51 AM

Rub it like a barbecue.

By chance are you working at Frys?

Dwarra? · October 29, 2012, 02:36:12 AM

Best Buy, only asians work at fry's

yuyu! · October 29, 2012, 02:45:57 AM

Yeah, haha xD I dunno about the asians part, but I am working at Best Buy.

My first real (technically training) day is tomorrow.
