I just filled in an application there this morning. Now I got a call from someone and she said Ronnie's (name of the movie theater)... at least I think that's what she said. I can't believe I didn't clarify, but I just assumed it couldn't have been anything else. Then after hanging up I realize that I've filled out a lot of applications. And I don't know, is it weird to get a call for an interview the same day you turn in an application? That's never happened to me.

I'm trying to think of what other places I've applied to that might sound like "Ronnie's", but I can't remember.

I guess I'll just go in on Friday and hope I got the right place <_<

Call back and ask for the exact address. That's totally normal.

I thought it might be weird to call back and ask because I obviously know the location since I turned in an application...

That shows poor planning and poor memory and such.

And asking her to confirm that it is the movie theater shows poor listening I guess.

I'm afraid this will just show them that I am not competent!

Maybe I could have my aunt or uncle call the number on their phone and see what they say or maybe ask for directions.

Only problem with that is that the phone number might not be public. Like it might not be the number people would call for customer service and such. Hmmmmmm.

either have them call or call from another phone

if they do not answer with like "hi this is blah blah theaters how can i help you" then just say wrong number and hang up.

You could call back and say " I just wanted to confirm the interview will be on location" or something like that. The possibilities are endless!

Of course it would be on location if it's the movie theater. It's a movie theater.

Well I'll figure it out. I'm pretty sure it is the theater because I really can't think of anything else it could be.

Just tell me, is it weird to get a call for an interview the same day you turn in an application? That's really all that's really making me wonder.

XD

Well I went to a Petco interview last week, even a second one with them, and I felt that I nailed it. Then they didn't hire me. So I'm just a little more wary of my actions now when it comes to this crap. I need a god damn job.

lame. the thought of an alcoholic working at petco is much more hilarious than a movie theater. i hate when employers don't think of the potential board 8 topics that can come from their hirings.

I guess because they only have like three or four people working at a time, they really need to be sure about who they hire. I would have been perfect for the job though, so I have no idea why they "went in a different direction".

What exactly would that yield? I wouldn't be drunk while working. And I haven't even been drinking lately because it became too much. Bleargh. It makes me sick just thinking about it still.

I switched to Tylenol PM.

The guy I interviewed with did seem like he would prefer a hot chick.

But then I interviewed with a female manager.

She must have been a lesbian. I guess she did kinda look like one.

have you previously applied to this theatre?

if not, the call CANNOT be from them as no one calls an applicant prior to receipt of the job application

thus, it must be from someone else

Yeah that had occurred to me. But the guy who gave me the application when I walked in said they wouldn't be hiring until next month.

But he didn't really seem sure.

your training might not be until next month. I was hired by a local theater once, my training session wasn't until 2 months later..... (at that point I didn't go because I was going back to school)

Well first I need to be hired.

Any tips for the interview? Since it's just a movie theater I think I'll be fine, but as I said I thought I nailed the Petco interview and I didn't get that. So... Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I wish Anri would get in here. He has movie theater experience.

She looked like a lesbian because she wasn't attractive. I'm pretty sure you're one of the rare attractive lesbians.

Try not to drool too much, that'll immediately set you apart from other applicants.
