I've been job hunting for a few months now. And this one bilingual position I found, where I'd be using the phone a lot, was available. It was perfect. I could work from home most of the time... good benefits...I'd be using my spanish...blah blah blah. So I applied for it, not thinking I'd really get a response. Well then, I get an email telling me that I'm being considered for the position and that I should call this number to give them more info about myself.
So, I call. And it's this automated system where they record your answers and you submit them to the company at the end of the call. With each question, they give you so much time to respond and then they move on to the next. Which totally makes me nervous, right?! My heart is pounding...my palms are clammy...my mind is racing...I berate myself, "NO, you idiot! You shoulda picked the spanish option, not the english... they secretly just wanna evaluate your spanish and don't give a damn about these questions!" First question comes. I freeze. I choke. I hang up. And get this... I could have called back to re-do it and I didn't and now it's too late. HOW LAME IS THAT??! Let's just add this to the endless shames that I carry.
Match that level of lameness and I'll give you a quarter, if you deserve it and if I have a quarter, cuz I'm lame like that. And cheap. Another lame quality of mine. :/
