    So I have an interview for a job tomorrow at 9:30 in the morning. It's only Target, and is going to pay less than my last job that I lucked into. The thing is though I'm trying to get my life straight. Education, job, future and everything. So any job right now is a huge step for me.

    So yep, wish me luck guys.

    I worked at Target when I was younger, not a terrible job if you're just looking for anything atm. GL w/ the interview.

    Which is exactly what I'm looking for right now. Obviously it isnt a career but it's a job. I'm taking online classes for my GED too, or going to, I could pass it right now but I just want to make sure (classes are like $10) so it's no loss. I'm just really looking to get everything going.

    Good Luck man! I'm in a similar position myself where I'm taking a lower paying job that probably isn't a career while I try to get my life back on track so I feel you.

    Be confident, polite, and respectful. If you're asked a question you don't know the answer to, don't make it up. Just say, "To be honest I don't know, but I'd like the opportunity to find the answer."

    You'll do fine.

    So yeah I got it pending drug test, which is going to come back clean. Everyone was really nice but the interview process was way longer than I imagined. I talked to maybe 4 different people over about 2 and a half hours.

    Long interviews usually mean success. If you need me to pee in the cup for you you're toast.

    Congrats alex. I'm happy for you.
    I worked in retail for over 30 years, from freight manager, sales and assistant mgr. It's hard work, but it's a living.

    Have fun wearing the uber-sexy combo of tan pants and a red shirt!

    You'll have to beat off with a stick!, I mean beat THEM off with a stick... Wait, it sounds gross either way. :shifty:

    Glad you found a job, man. :hi5:

    Congrats man, my first job was with K Mart way back when... really helped me out in more ways than one. Met my wife there, who convinced me to go back to college and I'm now about 3 weeks away from officially becoming a CPA (with a license number and everything).

    Don't know what it is about Target, but it never fails that I see at least a few MILF's every time I go there. That place is a MILF magnet for whatever reason.

    Enjoy the perk! :yes:

    Seriously, what is it with women and leaving their ****ing carts in the middle of the aisle?

    It's as if they simply lack the gene that allows them to conceptualize, "over to the side."

    Go to any store in a hurry, and it's not the lines at the registers that will slow you down - it's having to move other people's carts out of the damn way!

    what pisses me off is when people leave empty shoping carts in the middle of a parking space, are people really that ****ing lazy?

    I took the GED man and it isn't difficult. Passed it on my first go and that was without classes.

    I say go for it now.

    Edit: And good luck with the interview I'd like to get a job at Target too.
