Tips for a job interview

Never say, “I heard you guys were a$$holes to work for so I thought I’d check it out for myself.”
Do not go drinking before your interview.
Come in with your own pen. If you are handed a crayon, do NOT fill out the application with it.
Do not say things like, “I want to work the busy shifts. Slow shifts are a waste of my time.”
Bathe.
Do not say you left a job because your previous management “sucked”.
Do not apply with your BFF.
Do not list your BFF as a reference.
Do not take a call from your BFF during the interview.
Do not use the term BFF on your application.

This is classic Simonne humor. I love it. This is actually my first time reading your blog. As a hamburger sqaure resident, I like.

I noticed you were quoted in 99blocks today (how I found your blog). Perhaps we can have a conversation later about my beef with Hancock’s words (or jest, rather) on being single in Greensboro. It might be a good conversation to bring up here.

My son and I laughed out loud at this one. We want to be your BFF. AAF. ;)
