Star, you're a fighter!! If I can say something, that is "everything happens for a reason".

Good luck to you!!!

Hell yeah I love first days. I'm a people person and I love meeting new people and making new friends so first days are great for me. Never really nervous with them as I pick up on new jobs quite easily.

Take 2 weeks ago, I got cross trained on another line and I am already as fast as some of the faster full timers, and FASTER than people that have been on that line for 2 years. I'm still waiting for my stupid phone call to tell me if I made full time or not though. They said they would call by the 2nd week to tell us if we made it, and we would be hired the 3rd week. Well, it's already past 3 weeks and no one has called anyone yet.

It's funny, in my interview they asked where I saw myself in the company in 5 years. I stole your line and told them on the other side of the table where they (2 interviewers from HR) and they just laughed. The older lady turned to the young guy and said "I guess he wants your job". It went over quite well. Told them I wanted to return to school while working there and take an HR course.



Anyways, thats great to hear about your new job! My mom always says things happen for a reason too. I guess they do.

that line does work quite well and it breaks the seriousness of the interview as well. It shows them you have ambition which is what they like to see.

I'm a down to earth person and in interviews, I always make them laugh at some point. I always get the jobs i go for which is why i was so upset about not getting the job i wanted the last time. that was the very first time ever but, I know i left a really good impression since they remember who i am and are hiring me now that i'm not with the other company anymore.

i am a firm believer that things happen for a reason. it just wanted the right time for me to start at this other company in july. i had to experience the other place first i guess. why? i have no clue other then meeting some really nice people. I too make friends with people the first day. i have no problem making friends it's just that i am a bit shy so i force myself out of that which is what makes me nervous in the first place. LOL!!

i am so looking forward to this job. it'll be nice too that i know at least one person that works there that i know of.
