Well, I'm a working girl now. Permanent full-time. Start April 30 at MBF (Medical Benefits Fund - Private medical insurance company). Got the call back today. I'm extremely happy, because I didn't think I would get the job, having had no experience in the area. I'm very, very excited. Because it is PERMANENT I can go for those luxuries like loans and rent a house for myself and save money for me. YAY:D . I was so nervous because it was the first time I had really interviewed for a job outside of teaching. And I GOT IT!!!
So, tell me about your successful interview experiences. And your first real full-time job.
Working girl = Slang for Hooker.
You know, this is the quickest thread-jack I've ever seen.
Awesome, now all NS needs is blackjack.

Playa, please. You don't talk to the women; you go through me.
$20 will get you a smile and nod.

Did you read the fine print of your contract? I'm sure there's some nice clauses courtesy of John Howard's WorkChoices laws in there somewhere. :)

It's good to know I got a pimp who'll get me my money's worth. I might even let you have a cut of my earnings. If you're lucky;)

A smile, a nod, and a slight fidget. :)

80%, and I give you drugs. (that's how it goes, right? I'm new at this)
:P
(Actually, I didn't know working girl was slang for a hooker either. I pity the women in those uncivilised countries that still subconsciously believe the only work a woman can do is have sex. :P)
I'm working since I was 16, started to earn a wage since I was 20. I have never stopped working since then. I have even worked ad honorem, (not ad hominem), without receiving any salary in return.
I got my first paycheck when I was 13, however, due to a scholarship stipend. What can I say? Congrats, and it feels extremely good to earn money doing something you like, I hope it is your case.

I haven't got my contract yet. But believe me, I will be going over it with a fine-tooth comb.
I'll take it.
*hands Akai Oni the $1.53, pockets the rest*

It's called a pimpslap, dah-link. And yeah, I get all the drugs! Gotta get those bad teeth and sexy track marks somehow.

I did. And yeah, that's why I donate to Childwise and a few other agencies that help exploited women and children.

Yeah I know. So exploited and degraded. Disney Channel and Bratz dolls must die. Paris Hilton should be kept as an object lesson for later generations.

Contrary to popular belief the planes aren't meant to land upside down.

Planes landing = good.
Planes crashing = bad.
After that I start to get a bit vague on the specifics.

Ah, that's security? I thought it was part of the airline's service?

If that's the case...what happens if they're running away frantically? If the glow-sticks are being waved about carelessly...do the planes copy the movements?
What if the pilots decide that the runway isn't good enough for their ride? What if they want to land on one of those luggage cart trains?
Ah, that's security? I thought it was part of the airline's service?
Well, that depends on what airline you fly with. Qantas are rather accomodating in what you can do to their stewardeses.

One assumes that the policy covers men too. They'd get sued otherwise.

my first full time job was as a customer service agent (read: check-in monkey) for british airways at jersey airport. then i worked as a clerk for a bus company where i had to devise a system for distributing OAP bus passes, and then do the distribution. Then i worked as the 'Temporary Public Transport Co-ordinator' for the jersey government, my most impressive job title to date. all of those jobs were temporary though.

You might want to mention how you're not a coked-up sex-fiend; you might want to mention that several times (and very loudly). In fact, to prove just how much of a non coke-head you are, you should bring a brick of cocaine into the interview and then demonstrate your ability to ignore it.

I like your style. Wish I was interviewing someone from your school of interview success.
I'm in my first real job at the moment. Workingi na big superstore on the butcher counter counting meat and selling it. However I hope to go into publishing.
What'll $700 get me?
