So I'm probably going to have my first job interview tomorrow with Taco Bell (go ahead, laugh, everybody starts somewhere). Anybody have any tips on making good impressions/getting the job? Also, what was your first job? :3

HA HA HA HA HA HA. Ok I'm done and I can't really laugh.

My first job was at the local theme park, Carowinds.

I had to deal with hyperactive kids, morbidly obese people, and parents who though they were better than everyone else all day. Good luck at Taco bell, I don't know what its like at fast food. :I

Do they even care about anything other than whether you're a criminal or drug user?

firm handshake, care in appearence and look 'em in the eyes.

It's Taco Bell, don't smell like pot and you 'll be shoowin, and there is a possibility that it will be disregarded even if you do.

For job interviews, I generally show up fifteen minutes late, disheveled, drunk or hung over (the former if it's in the morning), and I talk down to the interviewer like I don't need the money this job will provide.

I guess I'm too good in interviews for any business in my area, because none of them have hired me yet.

^ Pretty much what I was going to say verbatim.

God, I hated that place. I couldn't help but feel it was a terribly slow-paced knockoff of Six Flags for the whole five hours I was there.

At a sub sandwich place. It was there that I realized how much it would suck to work at a "fastfood" place even though this place was of higher standard in my books. Good sandwichs, but they only gave employees half off on sandwiches and I was only making min. wage there.

After I stopped working there is when I got into contracting with my programmer "skillz".

Then I met a Army recruiter and he had a tazer and when I woke up, the next thing I know is that I'm on a plane to go to Basic :o

at my first job, they were all official, and i was like do you REALLY care about all my interests and opinions, or do you just want to tell me you got the job and put me to work?

he was like O_o
and then he said something along the lines of "yeah, just get to work, youll be walking along with that dude, pay attention and shit."

Here's good advice: don't fuck up the customer's order.

Yeah, you can only get away with that if you don't know English.

Oh yeah, that's half of Taco Bell's employees.
