A quick update of sorrow and futility

Don't worry I have more short films and reviews coming I'm just trying to get one whole day to myself so I can get everything done at once. That day should be tomorrow so watch out.

So yesterday I broke some kind of worlds record for shortest time having held down a job. I go to this call center to apply for a sales position (IRT). Well the normal course of action is that they have you take a couple of tests and then you do a short interview, but they were so jazzed by credentials (not to mention I give a great interview. Ladies you would be so turned on by how sexy my interview skills are) they booted me through the second interview, had me take a drug test there on the spot, and then told me I was hired.

The job didn't pay all that well. Nine dollars an hour plus a bonus couple of bucks for schedule adherence, and incentives of a dollar or two for sales. So I figure as long as I'm on time, and I sold a product or two an hour I could easily make around 14 or 15 dollars an hour. I even did a roleplaying exercise, and aced it so hard that they decided (since the job didn't pay all that well) that they would go ahead and assign me a monday through friday 9 to 5 schedule once I get out of training! Only vets get those kinds of hours. They did everything except carry me out of the office on their shoulders.

Well I get home and take a nap. Mid nap I get a call from the company saying, "Oops we forgot to do a background check on you, and since you have a misdemeanor charge from two years ago we can't hire you."

And so he shit his pants.

My friend did this one. Very funny.
