Alright so as most of my friends here know I had interview today to get a job with the Geek Squad. Thus the reason that my avi has been wearing an outfit the resembles to Geek Squad uniform for the last few days... trying to boost my luck...

Well The interview went went very well... *nods* I got to talk to the store manager and the General manager which is way awesome... and he LIKED me... *nods* He wanted to off me the job right then and there but he couldn't pull my on-line application up... which was the source of my "Compatability Score"... you know... a "grade" given to you based on your answers to a VERY generic personality test. But he said that he wanted me to come back and take the Geek Squad test on Tuesday but that would hinge on if I scored high enough on this test... which he would find out later if I did or not... so i'm thinking to myself... I always do alrigt on those things so I shouldn't have anything to worry about... I was one HAPPY camper when I left Best Buy today... just because I know I can pass the Geek Squad test and the drug test because well frankly we all know the worst drug I do is smoke and that's not illegal...

So yeah needless to say I was happy... even if the position he wanted to give me was only going to be part time... I was gonna be in... UNTIL... I got a phone call a few hours later... seems they finally got my score it was below what they were looking for! crying crying crying So he told me to retake it... which I did PROPTLY after I hung up the phone with him... (The beauty of this bad boy being ONLINE) But now I have to wait until either tomorrow or Monday to find out if I managed to pass this stupid personality test this time or not... Gods I hope I did because y'all KNOW how much I wonna be a Geek Squad Agent and I don't know if I'll get another chance to do this after this or not...

I SO HATE THOSE THINGS!!! And this one was so generic it was aweful! There was no room for gray areas... everything was simply yes or no and nothing else. How is this a proper guage of a person???? I mean it was CLEAR that the GM and store manager liked me... and I know that's why he told me to take the test again... Since when it did that become a minor indicator of a prospective employee??? I mean COME ON... how is a generic test a true guage of a person's personality and character? The situations a person deals with and how they deal with them means more than some stupid question based on a vague idea with no details or basis for which to go on???

All hope isn't lost yet... I just have to hope that this time the test saw things a bit better than the first time I did it... if it did I'm golden... if not... well... I'm doomed... *sighs*
