The Reality Behind the Interview #12

“This position pats $8.50 an hour. Is that ok?”


No. No, it’s not. I made $8.50 an hour working at a bookstore 8 years ago. What is that take home? $250 a week? I get that in unemployment that doesn’t require me to bore myself to tears 40 hours and 6 days a week in your impossibly tiny, dirty, ricketty, undecorated, unfurnished office.


“Sure!”

The Reality Behind the Interview #83

“What attracted you to this position?”

“I just really enjoy administration and organizing and being there to help others!”
