HAD INTERVIEW TODAY

[dozandmaxine]

Hi all
Very new to all this so forgive any errors !!
Had my interview today ( one of thirty candidates he said ) all seemed to go well.
Had some good advice off the site re what questions to expect.
They seem to be impressed that i had taken the time to read up on the changes that are currently taking place within rm ( park and loop ect ect ).
He said this was to be introduced into the depot in february. ( after the Xmas rush )
Anyway would just like to thank everyone who has taken the time to put advice on the site ( especially positive advice !! )
I'm a bit bewildered by the amount of acronyms used in the industry its like learning a whole new language !!
Also how do i get one of those funky avatar things up on my profile ??
There seems to be a lot of negativity out there regarding the job but it seems like a decently paid job to me ( maybe that opinion will change when i've been doing the job a while )
Anyway here's hoping i get the job
Bye for now
Ps whats the acronym for newbies and what does it stand for ??

Best advice, stay off the pop until AFTER work.

Don't need to click the link to know what video that is

And I think the problem there is that he went on the pop straight after work - my advice, go home and get changed first
