TTC After a Loss

I should be thankful for Job interviews.

But when a temp agency calls me and tell me about this job for an account rep, would be sitting with CEO's and working with companies to build a partnership on this business.

I was like humm that sounds awesome

The girl from the temp agency says, yea you would need to be very professional, their dress code is suits.

Ok I can manage that..

Then she say, the pay is only $8.50 an hour.

WTF? I can work at walmart for $11 and not have to go buy more suits for it..

This economy sucks.

 

Re: I should be thankful for Job interviews.

  • what in the world type of CEO's would that be working with?  CEO of the pump-n-go gas station for $8.50 an hour?  what kind of talent do they think they'll get for 8.50/hr?

    That sucks, sorry hon.

  • Yuck!  I'm sorry!  Was that your interview this morning, or another call?
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • This was a call this afternoon. I have 2 interviews tomorrow.

    When this temp agency called about this they wanted me to go in Friday but with already 2 interviews I told her I could not. She than made me feel like I was wasting a perfect job. Than dropped the $8.50 an hour on me.

    Seriously? I'm not going to be buying $80 to $100 suits for a job that will hardly put gas in my truck.

  • What?!?? That's it? You can work in a gas station for more than that. Who do these people think they are going to get to work for that little?

    You're right. This economy does suck.

  • $8.50 an hour??  That's borderline insulting.  My sister makes that working at BB&B.

    That's sh!tty news though.  Don't give up.  Something will come your way, I know it.

  • Sounds more like you'd be a file clerk.  Makes me wonder if she's misrepresenting the position or if the temp agency is taking too big of a cut of the pay for itself.
