Re: General Discussion 5

Thanks, man! I think it was awesome! I feel like it went ... very well. I left
with one of the best feeling I've had for ... a long time. Aaahhhh.

I asked God to help me. I know most of you don't like to hear [read] stuff
like this from me, but I think God was there to help me say the right thing
and make a proper impression. I actually found some of the things there at
the store funny/entertaining, and chucked a few times. Not sure why, though.

Re: General Discussion 5

Chuckling might work in your favour. It makes it seem like you have a sense of humour, and it'll flatter the employer a little, since it is likely that he or she tried to make the store entertaining. Unless you laughed at something inappropriate. Like a future co-worker's face.


It is often said that before you die your life passes before your eyes. It is in fact true. It's called living.

Re: General Discussion 5

Hope you get your job, Swaffy. I'll try not to be too jealous if you do. *still unemployed*

It never hurts to keep checking back with them to see if they've filled the position yet if you don't get a call right away. That way they'll remember you and it'll be obvious how much you want the job.

Good luck with the job, Swaffy. Party City sounds like a cool place to work. I work at the fast food place, Culver's, and it's not the greatest to say the least. I should probably be grateful I have a job though.
That song brought back some memories for me. Gran Turismo 2 ftw.

You could change my name to "Paranoia" without all the random caps if you want. It looks to much LIKE I'M YELLING MY NAME.

Re: General Discussion 5

I got a stretchy rubber dragon thing from Toys-R-Us earlier this week. He
looks a lot like Draco. He's a reddish color with some black areas on him.
The length is about ... 7-8 inches.

My Internet Explorer is having some JavaScript problems that I can't figure
out, so I won't be uploading a video any time soon to show you guys.

Lol, when's the last time I used Internet Explorer?  I think it was on a new Widows computer, and I was downloading Firefox.

Haha, same here. Was going to suggest that Internet Explorer itself is the problem, but I don't want to be like one of those pro-open-source-and-everything-that-isn't-sucks people that everyone hates.

Open source will save money.  Open Office does almost everything Microsoft Office does, and the stuff it doesn't do, normal people don't even need.
