Actually Productive
Warning this contains an updated about things I've actually done. Yes this is a break from the norm for me but it's nice to try new things.
So yesturday I recieved a phone call asking me to go into PC World for a preliminary interview today. So as always I sorted out my smart clothes (and realised that my clothing goes from scrufy to smart/formal while bypassing casual and smart/casual) the day before, and decided to get a smart hair cut so as to not ruin the illusion of smartness. I also figured out where the hell I was suposed to be going and which bus(es) I would need to take to get there. Fastforward to earlier today.
So I'm now dressed smart, and ready to go. I then realised, that traveling to the bus station also takes time and I have not accounted for this. Whoops. So I set off get to the bus station, take the bus to a different bus station and get there in time to see my bus leave. The next one does turn up for half an hour. What do I do? What do I do? Well I get that one safe in the knowledge I had planned ahead and if I missed my buss the next one would still get me there with plenty of time. Howzat bitches.
So I arrive go in etc etc. I was told to wait and they'd get me in 15mins. So I wait for a while and go. They explain that the first part is a test. There are 26 questions, you need 13 correct to pass. So we start. Due to me being an idiot I spent far to much time working out maths I didn't need to work out (hur) and thus only answered 16 questions. However my brain is large and so I pass any way. Next stage... personality test.
So I have to number 60 (or 80) statments with agrement levels (1 strongly disagree, 2 disagree 3 slightly disagree, 4 slightly agree, 5 agree, 6 strongly agree) in 15 mins (the time limit is you don't think about each one too much). So enter the numbers and it tells me I am most like Sugin-Toh, then linkin park music starts and I turn the computer into jumk. Erm I mean they do something with it while I have to wait over there next to the 12 or so 48 inch TV's. When I come back they say I have passed the personality test (nyoro~n) and to come back tomorrow for a proper interview.
Although tomorrow hasn't happened I imagine it will happen something like this. "Hey you rock, here have the job and this huge sack of cash and also some huge TVs" to which I'd be all cool like.
