Methinks if the OP stopped going around and groping all the girls he wants to get with, they might consider talking to him instead of calling the cops.
You can't just *squeeze* a girl...not until after the third date at least. |

| The Unicru tests are the ones I'm most familiar with. The only two times I've gotten an interview and job is when I sped through them answering "very strong" on either side. You can't tell the truth and take your time on them, they're meant to weed out good people and put in mindless people who swit... |

| I just got back from a real job interview (at Best Buy, got the offer as well) and the first guy I talked to said I seemed nervous, but I didn't feel that way. The best way I've learned to prepare after all my failings with interviews is to talk to yourself. Because only crazy people talk to themsel... |

| I just got "terminated" from my first retail job. On the positive side, I have a job interview in a few hours for another job, so hopefully I can use the experience I got from my first job and won't end up losing it. Retail sucks, but if you can find a job selling things you're passionate about, you... |

I disagree. I've loved the personalities of some less attractive looking people which made me consider romantic relations with them. Mind over matter, even fat matter. |

| I don't get the whole coupling idea. I've seen so many people take crap for dating someone they don't even like that much, it just makes no sense to me. If you haven't found the right person yet, that's all there is to it. |

| I don't usually talk to any other co-workers and when I do I usually end up insulting them. It's just how I am, out of habit from dealing with people who didn't understand me. I get yelled at for talking and for not talking with them. My previous manager hated that I never said "good" when she asked... |

I hate making phone calls. I'm lucky so far most of the places I've called have machines at the beginning to help me feel a little more comfortable before an actual person comes on the line.
Writing down what you want to say word for word sometimes helps, I've done that a lot. |

| Useful but must be taken with a grain of salt. Every bad experience is still a chance to learn and just because a company has a bad review, or a few, could only mean that the specific locations that those people worked at were bad. I just read the reviews for the company I currently work at, and non... |

As long as I'm behind the register, I feel comfortable and act like I'm talking to the machine rather than the customers. For the longest tim... |

I live in Boynton. Previously Boca Raton.
Sometime in the next few months or so I'll be up in Orlando, and then in December, down to Miami to visit a friend from Trinidad.
I love Florida, you can take one road to travel through the entire state. |

The doctors told my mother I'd be ret*d while I was still in the womb, maybe I should just tell them that. If they ask you if there is something wrong with you, would it b... |
