Work

After sending over 100 resumes I got called while I was driving...here goes the conversation:

Mr X: Hello this is … from … (… = didn’t understand)
Me: Hello I’m currently driving do you have a second.
Mr X: What was your previous experience
Me: I worked as a project manager
Mr X: Would you like to come for an interview tomorrow?
Me: No problem I will pass the phone to my girlfriend who will write down the hour and location

….

Sofie: So what was it about?
Me: Not the faintest idea

…(Next day 10:30 at location)

I set down near the reception were I got some papers to fill in about myself. While I filled them out I looked around and saw some awards with the company name OzShut. Thank god for the existing technology. I looked up the company and figured out they sold window shutters. Great!! (I thought) I will be assembling windows shutters or installing them. I went through the interview while saying nearly nothing, but the main points of the conversation were Shopping Center and training now. I guess you are starting to get the point…

...(Next day 8:30 at Shopping Center)

Me (holding a flyer): one for you today?
Me (holding a flyer): one for you today?
Me (holding a flyer): one for you today?

I'm a promo-boy for window shutters, how cool is that. I receive on top of my salary a commission for each appointment I can make for my advertisement manager with a client.
