Default I had my job interview in 3 years today!

Earlier today I had a job interview at Target in Waukesha, WI. I had applied only about 5-6 days before today, so it's a strange thing in this economy. My advice for anyone looking for work is to just apply to as many places as possible, be patient, and chances are one of the places you've applied will call you back. Keep in there!

If places try to hire you straight away that means they're desperate, if they're desperate that usually means its a **** place to work. Knowing a few people that work at Target my statement is pretty true.

It could also just be a coincidence that when I applied somebody there quit or got fired right away and my application was actually looked at in a timely matter. I've heard nothing but positive remarks as far as Target goes from people that used to work there, Walmart is the sketchy retail giant, not Target. However, I do agree that your statement could be right as well.

If you're gonna have that attitude, enjoy being miserable your whole life.

I like to work somewhere that I enjoy.

Getting money doing something you enjoy > hating life.

^Yeah, but nowadays it's tough enough to find a job, let alone complain about how you don't like it...
