    Unhappy Job Interview

    i had the most horrible job interview yesterday.
    it was gonna be so perfect... a part time w/hrs from 10 - 2pm... that way I could ensure I'd be home when the little one got back... but NO!

    that was too easy.

    it was completely different than the ad i applied for. i even took it in & the HR lady laughed at me... laughed!! and said "that post is about 4 yrs old".
    WTH???
    And said "there have been a few changes since" & goes on to tell me i'd have to cover up to 8 ppl's shifts (receptionists) because "sometimes they dont show up" - but i'd also have to get MY job done (which would'a been delivering the mail to the different buildings).
    BUT... if I had to stay late (due to covering others' shifts) then that's fine... the campus stayed open until 7pm - BUT

    ---get this part ----

    i wouldnt get paid for having to stay over my "given" hours.

    I was so MAD - i mean angry - when I left I couldnt see straight.

    so i stopped by the video store in front of the house (newly opened) & applied there. today will be my interview.

    *sigh*

    oh & btw.... HI!

    sneaking again on here from work.

    Being required to work over and not being paid?? Isn't that called slavery and isn't that illegal?? I wished you'd laughed back at her!!
    Definitely better off without that job!!

    Doesn't sound like a job I would want either.

    You do not need to work for a company like that!

    Good luck on the new interview. Was that lady serious? Maybe she had a friend lined up for the job and was trying to scare everyone else off?
