... Is it wrong that I'm totally stressing out about this upcoming interview with the DATS command? I... I've never done an interview like this before, and I want to make a good impression. I mean, if this place is as troubled as everyone makes it out to be, I should be out trying to fix that, but I'm not some kinda superhero, I need to work with

[trying so hard not to laugh]

It'll be fine, Lori-san!

[fireybrush]

You say that, yeah, but... I've never done this, so it's naturally really worrisome. I mean, where I'm from, taking a job basically consisted of walking in, saying, "Oy, you need someone?", and whoever was in charge - if anyone - saying "Sure, why not?!"

For there to be an actual interview like this... I mean, should I dress differently? Clean up my bike? Practice the bass? I don't even know....

[drunkkareoke]

It was all new to me once, too! Remember? I was made for singing, but I decided to work in the DATS garage here.

I would say... dress a little nicer if you can, but don't try to go overboard. If you're going for a face to face interview I wouldn't worry too much about your bike, but they are going to want to know your skills some how.

[a thoughtful pause, then]

Ah! I keep forgetting you're so new here! Do you need clothes for the interview maybe? We can go shopping.

[fireybrush]

Well...

Yeah, that would probably be a wise idea, huh?

... I really should see what I can do to enhance my bike, now I think about it...

My big brother's in DATS! If he could get in I'm sure you can!

[fireybrush]

... Why does the word choice for that sound entirely unreassuring?

[gotakittyscarf]

I didn't mean it to... I just meant I don't think you need to worry about the interview too much!

[fireybrush]

R... Right.

I just... I gotta make this work. Somehow.

[stray_badluck]

You just need to relax. I mean I'm sure it's just like a normal interview...but for the authorities.
I can't say anything about it personally, but un-knowledgeable reassurance is better than no reassurance at all.

[fireybrush]

It's... when you have no experience with "normal" interviews...

[stray_badluck]

Oh...um, try to appear as professional as possible. And don't stutter. That's about all I got.

[fireybrush]

Great... Just...

I'll try that...
