I might be getting my first job tomorrow!

I'm pretty excited. I have an interview tomorrow at 11, so I still should be back for the awards I think.

But yay, hopefully they hire me. I'd be working at an A&W. :D

Good luck with your interview! Hopefully you'll get it!

My first one was ridiculous, it was this tiny stall in a big shopping centre and I had four shifts there, then they never called me back in despite me calling them (I guess I was terrible). It was okay though because my next job was actually a year-long professional programming job which was much more suited to my skills. :P I'm now studying and also doing contract work for a local game company.

The only job I've had is writing for The Shroom, but I doubt they'll allow that as experience.

Were you paid for it? Because if so, you can definitely word it so it sounds impressive (or even if it wasn't you can still probably make it sound impressive). I've used my forums as experience in the past because technically I have been paid in ad revenue. :P
 
bullshit it as volunteer work for an online publication and nothing more, they're not going to ask specifics (prob'ly)

The 'Shroom is the local newspaper on the Super Mario Wiki.

That's actually quite a good idea
 
Got another little "interview" or sorts today. Not sure if its's orientation or what (I would assume not, I still need to get a work permit)
