interview outcome

Tuesday, September 23, 2008

this might be my shortest blog ever because today is speeding by but...

i went for the interview. nervous as heck i get there and it turns out i know the guy interviewing me since i was 4 years old. that was weird. so we talked and i totally would of had the job BUT

i didn't take it.

why?

because the personal trainers at bally's work fully off commission apparently- there is no salery. I can't get a job where if i go to work for a day, i might not even come home with a dime! that's scary.

so i'm sad it wasn't what i thought it would be. especially because working in a gym would be perfect for me. I asked him keep me in mind if sales or front desk opens and he said okay.

but for now- it's back to monster, yahoo and craig's list b/c i really need a 2nd job- THAT PAYS



off the acupuncture. my knees have been hurting a little. boo.

    That's really weird! Too bad it didn't go better, but I don't blame you for not wanting to get PAID for your time!!! You'll find something better, no doubt!

Thanks for keeping us posted! Hope you are doing ok!

    So does "commision" basically mean that you should hunt for clients in the gym to get paid? That would suck indeed! Anyway, good luck with job hunting! And be careful with those knees! BTW I've been pain free for a whole week at last! I actually did Shred level 1 yesterday and it gave me sore muscles today (I'm sooo unfit!) but my knee is still fine. I didn't push a lot of course; the last thing I want is to relapse...

Keep rocking!

    That's a bummer. I don't understand how people can afford to work on commission only. How much money do they have???
