Tell us, why ARE you a good fit for the job?

Also they're not going to hire you if they don't have any vacancies.

As far as consumer electronics go, cell phones are my favorite, even more so than PC's. I keep up on all the latest news, even down to following the prices and deals that each manufacturer and carrier offers. I do this all on my own time, because I'm just interested in the stuff. I have experience in customer service, retail, and promotion. My hours are completely open and flexible, except for Mondays and Wednesdays (when I attend school). I don't have sales experience, but I'm only 21, so it's definitely not too late to learn. I also don't care much about what the wages are, and don't mind working part-time with rotating shifts. I'm a polite and non-prejudiced person who grooms themselves well, so I think I'll be able to work with the public on a retail level.

I can't imagine that being someone who sells cell phone plans and moves cell phones on the floor is much more than that. You think there won't be any openings out of the 10 to 20 stores? I have no idea.

Manager here, done lots of hiring and interviews. Pro tip: keep your intentions on being helpful and you'll be fine.

Dude me too

It sounds like he is genuinely sorry and is trying to heal his own guilty mind by behaving this way with you. Balls in your court, forgive him or tell him to get lost.

>>18629043
I would tell you that dont take revenge on him, it seems atractive, but its not nice, just tell him how you feel and tell him you want him to apologize, he definatly is sorry and remember that forgiving is the key of human relationship

>>18629043
Wow OP I wish my best friend made up for the bad things they did to me instead of thinking everything is fine. Your friend sounds like they actually care. Drop the hate.

Jesus Christ, staring at women is not how you make a good first impression. She probably knew you were staring at her and didn't look up because she didn't want to deal with a creep like you.

>>18629047
This anon is right. I hate it when strange men state at me, it makes me feel extremely uncomfortable and sometimes even scares me. Public transport is not for ogling girls and it's really not the best place for finding a date...

>>18629047
haha! creep!

What do you mean? How did you waste it? And if you were going to waste a year of your life, 18-19 isn't exactly the worst year to waste.

>>18629030

Well my plan for the year was to continue on my own semi-successful ebiz, and land a full time job to fund it's growth (Mentally I wanted a 'baseline' for money as a safeguard).

First month was spent moving out of home.
Then I kept working a part-time job for a bit since I couldn't go full time. I spent almost all my money on outsourcing / paid ads online, and it grew really well, I made bank within a few months, quit my job, actually.

Then various things happened, business tanked, I lost my work ethic, relationship went to shit, and I slipped into this cucoon of just living in my apartment and never leaving, or working.
I lived on a diet of microwave food, talked with no one, never showered, never built any skills or indulged interests. I spent 8 months living on the money I made alone.

Now I am admitting defeat, moving, and enrolling, with just enough money to make it possible.

So yeah thats how I wasted it, for the most part.

pour enough amount of rice into a jar. dip earphones completely in the jar. rice absorbs moisture. you're good

also, great choice on earphones. though i prefer bose's sound over akgs for earphones.

>>18629222
also you have to leave it for 24 hours in the jar lol forgot to mention that

>stamp on a bird or kick a dog
my advice for you is to kill yourself fast

My first thoughts were army or medicine, where my apathy might be a plus.
But I would have too much power over venerable people as a doctor or paramedic and if life wasn't going my way I'd genuinely vanish a patient occasionally

I'm not sure the army needs baby killers anymore, they value sound judgment and care about their public image.
I'd make a good soldier but I would be worried about how I would manage with my comrades, my gut feeling is that bad things would happen to them; or to me (because people can turn on me like packs of dogs).
Maybe SF, where teams are smaller, demands are higher, work is dirtier

The corporate world might be a good place, if I got a senior position I could have enough space to hide my issues, the rigid structure of interaction would preclude any incidents.
Being a ruthless workaholic at a large firm wouldn't be so bad really, I've had sucess in business in the past; albiet because I lied to everyone

>>18629023
if I don't get my shit together it might be your dog :^)
wouldn't have posted if there wasn't a mutual interest in this

>>18629008
You have Antisocial Personality Disorder?
If you feel like there might be a problem, try going to a therapist or a psychiatrist or something, if you haven't already done so. They might be able to give you some professional advice (even though they might be a bit condescending)

I guess I can never know what it's like to live with ASPD cuz I don't have it, but something I can relate to is hating people.

Do you have any aspirations at all? Anything you've always wanted to do? You're 25, and thankfully, not in jail. Even if you are incapable of feeling certain emotions, and even if you hate people, there's nothing stopping you from creating your own values and beliefs, and pursuing the things you aspire for.

Killing yourself would be a pretty lazy way to solve your problems, and killing another human being, even not taking into consideration morals, is a pretty cheap way of feeding a need for control.

TLDR just do something that you've always aspired to do, like maybe you like music or something and you've always wanted to be a musician, or like baking or some shit.

Go to a doctor dude. I'm pretty sure it's not anxiety. Anxiety usually creates stress and an increase in blood pressure and heart rate. You might have a cold, fever, or flu

That's disassociation, start of a hip and trendy mental illness :D

I'm pretty sure cutting your dads shirts is not a healthy way to deal with your dad leaving you. Have you tried talking to him like a rational human being?

This site is 18+ kid.

Raging hurts mostly you. You will get in trouble. Raging is like drinking poison and expecting other person to die.

Heya,

Well you're starting college, so that by itself is a clean slate. Making friends isn't exactly rocket science. Just talk to people. Join a club or something. If one of your classes has a group project, the "meeting people" part is pretty much done for you. Or you just just strike up a conversation with your fellow classmates about literally anything. Even if you fuck up and say something stupid, it's honestly not the end of the world. The key word here is to try, no matter how awkward it might be at first. Practice is how you get better at social interactions

Clubs

Make sure, when you speak that you speak clearly and loud enough for everyone to hear you. Try to be engaged, and dont stay silent.

Don't fuck up!

>>18628906
Be dominant. When talking stare deep into the souls of the interviewers. Have a loud confident voice. Crack jokes. Have loose and open body language. Give rape looks to any hot bitchs, then pound them that same night.

Self bump.

I went to private parking lots with a friend and i was allowed to drive there, i usually just had problems with the clutch at first that is why i did that. Other than that problem driving classes did it for me.
Just eliminate any doubt in your mind and concentrate on what you need to pay attention to. Or did takumi go 10mph because he drove iketanis car for the first time?

Confront 100% of the time. But don't be dickish and use ad-hominem, just be stern and say that you don't appreciate X action because *insert your reasons here* and it needs to stop

>>18628898
Context please?

My on-and-off best friend is just giving me the cold shoulder again, like they do about every 6 months. Known this person for about 6 years, and when our friendship started, it wasn't like this. But it keeps coming to this. I'm always the one initiating conversations, trying to make plans to hang out, and so forth. Then, when I get tired of putting in all the effort, there is silence until either something major happens in their life, like a breakup without anyone else to talk to, or I get so frustrated that they seem to care so little that I finally pipe up.

Once I say something, they usually apologize, blaming life just being hectic, and for a few weeks after seem to put a genuine effort into our friendship again, before it begins to cycle back through. And I'm just tired of this cycle. I care deeply about this person, for the longest time there was no one I was closer with, and I still want them to be a part of my life, but at a certain point this just needs to stop.

>>18628864
That's a bad idea

>>18628864
there's a reason that you aren't together

and it isn't that she's unaware that you are into her

Let me add some points, my English sucks (Slav fag)
>we've been seeing each other much more frequently , about 2-4 times a week despite a longish train ride since she took me out for birthday last june
>before we'd only see each other a few times a month and it'd always be in a social setting with others but now it's just us
>she's always buying me food at nice restaurants and frequently gives me free beer and cigarettes
>her co workers also tease her about me being her boyfriend or something as well
>she also seems to always dress up when we meet with the exception of it being real late
>we also have been getting drunk a lot together which was never really a thing
Thanks for your patience
