This went a bit weird.... 1. When I went in and asked to speak to Rene (he's the manager), he came over and said immediately that he was sorry but I had to be 16 to apply for the job. 2. After telling him my proper age and who I was, he made a crude gesture about how my voice sounded older when we had talked over the phone. 3. While we were talking he told me that I was consistently mumbling, when I was clearly speaking loudly. 4. 10 mins into speaking with him in in his "office", he told me that he was really busy and if I could come back at the same time tomorrow. I don't know how he could be that busy when the restraunt was literally so slow. 5. The only thing he liked was my piercings and that I was willing to work everyday. So all in all, he was kind of nice, but he did some random stuff. I'm confused to whether he's just a dickhead or if he was pulling some sort of "test" on me to see how I would react in the case of a customer being rude to me. Nonetheless I'm coming back tomorrow like he asked. thoughts? Edit : yes I now realize that I fucked up the spelling of "Application" in the thread title so badly xD Link to comment

Not that you really have a lot of choices for a first job, but yeah I'd definitely look elsewhere. I know I mentioned it in another thread but I highly suggest working at Staples as a first job. You can be an Easy Tech Associate selling computers and other technology to people. You make over minimum wage plus commission from your sales. A bit more variety in your work then fast food since you get I talk to people. Plus Staples was such an easy job when I worked there way back when. 1 Link to comment

Don't see it as wasted time, but an opportunity that sadly resulted in a negative result. Go back tomorrow and be friendly ;) 1 Link to comment

Edit : yes I now realize that I fucked up the spelling of "Application" in the thread title so badly xD Dude forget that idiot and the place. There are no tests working in a simple fast food place, just showing up and putting on a fake smile. The only things you're gonna face are people being impatient and rude over a mistake. If you really need that job then do whatever, just look at the employees faces when you enter next time. 1 Link to comment
