He said it in front of one of the other sales managers that they both knew that at least one of the managers in the store right then was going to be gone soon.

But why do you say not to believe it?

Im basically the same way. I know what you mean

over here if you manage to get a job without a degree and have experience they pretty much don't care about if you have a degree or not unless it's a specialized one like law/accountancy/whatever

it's getting the initial job that's the hurdle though

ofc I may just be telling myself this because there's a decent % I drop out this year

i always wanted to rasterbate a pic of a galaxy on my wall

pub moves too fast

It's not a baseball game.

I'm just not understanding the idea of 'managing' a relationship.

Do you love the girl? If yes, then do you want to spend the rest of your life with her, have a family, grow old together? If yes, then you go for it and work towards your now common goals.

Not everything in a relationship is some weird power-play and if you find yourself in a relationship where you are thinking about who has more power or about needing to make power-plays, then you're in the wrong relationship.

Because a GM who says that to someone in an interview is just looking for people who are going to be boot lickers. He's also a ****ty GM.

I come from the world of sales.

Retail is not sales.

You need to get into real sales, and to do that you need a degree in basically anything under the sun that is not fake or a complete joke.

Because its his job to improve NOW and anything he says should betaken with that in mind.

By saying it, he gets the most ut of everyone involved.

me too!

anyone saying this about a current employee has low standards and sucks really bad.

How do you draw that distinction?

Why wouldnt you just think that it means that he is serious about getting the store in order?

meh that's not really what i had in mind when i said "management"

i could explain but it seems like it's prob more effort than it's worth


I think it's a trend of the generation of people currently in their 20's. Most people who are 40+ seem to subscribe to the idea that love + relationships can't be quantified, but our generation seems way more down with it.

Except your overlooking the fact that I was right. She has clearly stated that she wants him to be more dominant.

The fact that I treat my relationships like games is moot, the fact is, in those relationships, I wan nothing from those women long term.

Your assuming that I am single because my relationships have failed because of bad play on my part when that is not true. My relationships fail because I plan for them to fail. I haven't wanted a marriage. I told BEG when I first moved to Indy that are relationship would only last 2 years and I was right.

Just because I don want forever and live my life to ensure that, doesn't mean my advice is wrong. I've gotten what I wanted out of my relationships.

I consider that a success. There is a reason why I have been able to have **** buddies for longer than average marriages.

If he says things about one employee's job performance in front of other employees, he's a bad manager, period.

Well he didnt give any names. He just said 'half the store'

I'm glad you **** so much your dick is in a continual state of regeneration.

But you give ****ty relationship advice to anyone who thinks women are above a subspecies that are nothing more than cumdumpsters.

1) Telling someone during an interview that you are going to be getting rid of current employees is horribad in the way of being completely unprofessional. Theres many more reasons I could go into detail, but it is just plain terrible.

2) No. There is a reason he has these bad employees there now, and it is probably because the job sucks and turnover is super super high.

That's sort of true here, I guess

Why are you feeding the troll?

after shaving with a safety razor for a few weeks, i can't believe i've ever used anything else

He just got to the store 4 days ago. I actually asked for a job the day he arrived. He said he hasnt had time to do the clean up he wanted, but the store has a total of 20 employees, and they maintain it at that number.

He is hiring in 6 people at same time as me... I think thats a pretty clear sign he was serious.

Maybe Im misreading the situation but he seemed pretty miffed about the stores' performance and the current employees' attitudes.

I'm bored

Systo, sorry if I missed this, but what are you going to be doing in particular? Are you going to be one of those guys that stands on the floor and helps customers pick stuff out? Or are you doing something else?

Its a trap!
